The solid felted bag was made with 750 yds. of Stonehedge Fiber Mill’s Shepherd’s Wool in Antique Rose, and shows the regular-size bow with bow ends. 100% merino wool yarns felt shorter and sometimes smaller than non-merino wool yarns; this difference accounts for the slightly smaller size of the Antique Rose bag you see here. The bi-color felted bag was made in Louet’s Riverstone in 630 yds. of Strawberry and 230 yds. of Valentine, and sports the over-sized bow. Both sample bags were handbeaded. The solid bag is decorated with 2mm beads, while the bi-colored bag is decorated with 3mm beads.

As with all Noni Bags, you can make Clara felted or unfelted.
