purse 13 - holly
This pretty and feminine purse has an all over cable pattern. The bottom of the purse is crocheted as well as the scallop trim. After the base is completed, the stitches are picked up around base and knit; making this a blend of knitting and crocheting together in one project. We trimmed the purse with 1/4" ribbon along the top. |
