This pretty little practical purse is knit from the top down, in the round and in one piece (no seams!) It uses simple beading, eyelets and knit/purl stitch combinations so you’ll never get bored.
The beautiful secret to the bag is the lining. Instructions are given to sew a simple double lining and how to use a plastic bowl between the linings to add structure to the bag. This means you can load up your purse with a wallet, cosmetics, glasses or even use it as a knitting bag and it won’t sag, droop or have things poke through.

Pretty and practical!
