365.2.11 - Felted Toy Basket

This was such a neat idea. I'm really disappointed in how the handles came out though. It was cast off and rejoined into the basket body but during felting it totally stretched out and got awful. Not happy about that at all. Temping to cut the handles off and even out the basket, but we'll see.

 

I had made it with a bulky yarn so it would be a bit bigger than the original pattern, but I'm just not sure what went wrong. My handles sure don't look like the pics on Rav.

 

It holds stuff ok, but not exactly what I had in mind once finished.
