I used a pattern I designed for Lion Brand back around 2005, called “Outside-the-Lines” Purse. The pattern can be found on their free pattern website ( Pattern #60304AD).

The original pattern is monochromatic and uses LB Wool-Ease, Homespun, and Microspun yarns. I decided to change up the yarns get a different effect.

The most challenging part of making this purse is sewing the sides together because they don’t form straight lies. I wrote about how I made this purse at my blog, so you can get all the details there.
