Bling Bag is July ‘24 Lola’s Choice kit… Kits for July SOLD OUT so SIGN UP NOW and don’t miss out on future kits! September’s kit is Lola’s 50th kit and she’s dyeing to show it to you all!

This stylish bag uses fingering-weight recycled denim yarn held double throughout (you can also make it with one strand of DK). Bling Bag’s Bottom can be knit or crochet, crafter’s choice!

The body of Bling Bag features prestrung beads throughout the body. The casing at the top employs Lola’s Two-Timing Technique, a fresh way to use stitch saver that creates a double layer of fabric. The bag is finished with an i-cord drawstring and an optional peyote stitch slide bead to safely cinch the bag up!
