Simple Flattery
This classic, slim 11 x 15 inch purse is a quick knit, easily embellished and very flattering to wear. When finished, the soft felted fabric hides its almost indestructible construction and the tie off makes strap adjustment easy.
The pattern has directions for the basic bag and straps with extra tips and notes included to help you embellish your purse in your own way. "But that's not all" (Thanks Ron Popeil) I've also included directions for a smaller purse, made as a swatch, "A Little Flattery (goes a long way)". In my mind, the two designs compliment each other so much that I've put them together in the Simple Flattery pattern.
Cost? $5.00 plus postage.

Flattery

get you everywhere!
This purse has its own rhythm.

The
Perfect Bag
Perfect
bag? Just about everyone makes a “perfect” bag
from a KnitKit pattern.
The secret? Use
feltable yarn. After the knitting is finished every bag is thoroughly
felted by a simple washing then it is stretched
onto a form to dry. The shape is always perfect!
Tricks? Easy…
Check with your local yarn shop for the right materials.
They stock popular feltable yarns and all the
right tools. Local yarn shops have the experience
to help even a new knitter make a perfect bag.
Yarn shop?
Experienced knitters shouldn’t have any problem making and
finishing a bag on their own. BUT… What could be
more fun than a trip to the yarn shop?
Thanks to you. Sold in over 700 local yarn shops
