and after (still wet, lying on a towel to dry, button not attached):

I hated doing the attached i-cord, whether because I'd never done it before, or because I wasn't very good at it, I don't know. By the end I'd made peace with it, but I'm not sure I'd do it again. Oh heck, yeah, I'd probably do it again, but the problem was mostly the changes in colors--I didn't like it when the base color showed through the i-cord, so I ended up cutting the yarn and adjusting which color went where.

It turned out nicely, I thought. I enjoyed working with the Kureyon--beautiful yarn! I have just a really small amount left, and intended to make a little changepurse or something with it, but totally forgot in my haste to felt!
