Eureka – Thank you! But it’s as was. Once you start the felting process it ca’t be reversed. So if it only half felts you have this depressing ugly duckling of an object.
Never fear, however: I have defeated my yarn in mortal combat. Updated pics of felted bag at the same link above. Finished size 6.75w x 10.75 height.
A little narrow for an Ipad but perfect for a Kindle. 
I like it! Cute!
ETA: Does anyone have any idea what to do with unwanted yarn? I have several skeins of yarn I bought when I was young and foolish - novelty yarn that’s kinda furry and feels really nice but a PITA to work with. I also received some sparkle-y yarn as a gift that is likewise a bitch to knit with (it’s really light too, maybe fingering weight or lighter). I was thinking of donating them to an orphanage so kids could use them for arts and crafts. Any other ideas?
Hey Hazel if you know the orphanage takes yarn then I think it’ a great idea. If they don’t then maybe a senior center?
I taught myself Tunisian crochet entrelac this weekend and I am absolutely INSANE for it. I literally had to force myself to stop for a few hours. I’m making a baby blanket for my cousin. I started yesterday and got 10 inches done!

Haze, you could try knitting silly hats with stripes made from the yarn you don’t really like and then donate them? You might be able to stand knitting with different yarns just a bit at a time.
And…whoa! HelloAgain, that blanket looks amazing! Looks like fun to make, too.
Really like your blanket too, Broomstick.
Also, did everyone see Alice’s other knitting thread?
I’ve been experimenting with entrelac (knit, not crochet).
I got my real yarn the other day and my new 48" circ today, so I tried to start on the entrelac bedspread I’m going to do. Note to self: backward loop cast-on, while quick and easy, sucks with circs, especially if the needles are wider than the cable. I got all my stitches cast on, started the base triangles, and discovered everything slooooowly tightening up behind the needle part so I couldn’t pull it over the transition to work on it. 
Had to cut the whole thing out. I’ll start over this weekend with a real cast-on…
Yeah, I’ve gotta learn entrelac …
It’s not yarn yet . . .
(In other words, it’s my haul from a nearby sheep and fiber festival. It will be yarn when I get around to spinning it up, which won’t be (mostly) until I’ve spun some projects with previously purchased fiber. And actually, the colorful silk hankies are intended for mawata mittens a la the Yarn Harlot where the silk doesn’t actually get spun before being knit. Curiousity is a dangerous thing.)
I love those colors!!! I can’t wait to see what the yarn will look like.
Here is my most recent finished project…
