Crochet Hook Case

I got tired of changing the tiny ziploc bag that was holding all my hooks because one of them had poked of yet another hole in it... So I make myself a case. I found the pattern at http://www.berroco.com/exclusives/kluster/kluster.html [1]
I used almost 4 skeins of Freedom Wool by Twilley & Stamford,with a 11.5mm hook for the felted part. Since it was my first felting project and I had no idea how much it would shrink, I made it bigger than the pattern called for. I made it so it was 13"X19", and it ended up being about 10"X14". If I had known, I wouldn't have made it so wide. The lenght is good, as I can put more hooks that I yet have to buy. But it's a bit big. The fact that I crocheted with 2strands TOG made it quite thick. I recommend using only one strand with a smaller hook.

For the strip down the middle, I started with a smaller hook so it'd be tight enough to hold smaller hooks. 

Anyway, here it is
