Knitted with Alafoss Lopi Icelandic 100% pure new wool yarn from a free pattern download from Ravelry.http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fulled-lopi-tote
This is a handknitting pattern that I converted for machine knitting - I added the bobbles using the shibori technique.
See top tab Felted (Fulled) Machine knitting - Shibori Style for a description of this technique.
Shibori comes from the Japanese word shiboru; an ancient Japanese craft and is a term for the process of introducing resistant items into textiles to form three-dimensional effects. The word shiboru means to press, squeeze or wring. Tie-dying is another example of shiboru.
