More about the purse: The carnivorous plant purse is made from a base of simple sc, hdc, & dc stitches worked in the round from a central foundation chain. This is an amigurumi technique, which I will walk you through (with step-by-step photos) in the pattern. The main body of the purse is sewn together at the side seams (so a fair bit of sewing is required for this pattern) and the teeth are all attached separately (either by sewing or with glue). This pattern uses two (and sometimes three) strands of worsted weight yarn held together.
