Selection of wool and start of work
Before you begin felting,wool needs to be selected. In our case, we select 5 shade options. For our work we use eggplant color, purple in three shades, and also a little turquoise.

To start, we will do it in one direction, then apply the next layer at a 90 degree angle to give the wool better felting properties. Also, an additional layer is made on the sides so that when felting on the front side, it is possible to wrap the product over the face. Working with mortar, felting

After this, the edges, as well as the bottom of the bag, are folded up. Afterwards, the wool is laid out for the front part of the handbag. We use it in this order: eggplant wool color, (90 degree angle) – layer of shades of purple. We use turquoise wool to apply a floral pattern, and also add accents as needed. Next, cover the product with a bag and wipe it. Finishing edges using felting
