Beginner
A friend of mine likes to travel with her iPad and have it handy when she's sightseeing and wants to take a photo and Email it to the people back home. So she asked me to come up with a handy tote bag with shoulder straps for easy carrying. She said she also wanted it felted "to make it cushion-ee, please."
I specialize in easy patterns for Beginner knitters. This is an easy knit, worked flat and seamed together. There's minimal shaping and I mean MINIMAL! And you only have to pick up 3 stitches.
I've included a felting lesson for those of you who haven't tried felted knitting yet. Now's your chance!
Once your tote is completed you can embellish/trim it with embroidery, needle felting or however you like. The choice is yours and is limited only by your imagination.
As with all my designs, if you have any questions as you work on the project, please feel free to contact me. I want you to enjoy the experience and end up with a FABULOUS Felted iPad/Tablet Tote Bag!
NOTE: I'M VERY GRATEFUL TO MY FRIEND SUSAN WHO IS ALWAYS AN AVAILABLE, WILLING AND CHEERFUL MODEL. THANKS AGAIN, SUSAN! I LOVE YOU!
2.5 stitches and 3.5 rows = 1 inch (2.5 cm)

I am certified as a Level 1 Master Hand Knitter by The Knitting Guild Association. My grandmother Lena taught me to knit when I was 4 years old and told me that a lifetime of knitting pleasure was her legacy to me. I love to design and knit and enter my work in competitions. I've won numerous awards and ribbons over the years and that's a lot of fun, but the greatest pleasure is the actual creative process. I specialize in Beginner and Intermediate level designs that teach new skills and promote excitement for the art that is Knitting. I think new knitters should have the opportunity to work with a well-written design that reinforces their current skills, teaches them new skills and gets a "WOW, you made that?!!?" response when showing off their completed project.
