Description
“A one-skein project, this little vintage-style, romantic bag is fun to make and looks as sweet as a little cake. Embellished with one or several sweetheart roses, it’s is a great companion for evenings or weddings. A perfect bag for bride and bridesmaids.”
Cover Samples: All of the flowers were made with Tilli Tomas’s Flurries.
The chocolate bag with a single rose was made with Shepherd’s Wool in Midnight Lake with Flurries in Moss and Ruby Wine. The Red bag was made with Tilli Tomas Flurries in Ruby Wine. All the flowers were made with Flurries as well. The white and pale pink bags were made with Tilli Tomas’s Whistler in Natural and Dusty Pink respectively with Flurries flowers. Some unbeaded stems were made with Shepherd’s Wool in Lime.
Nora suggests using fine worsted weight wool or alpaca yarns in colors you love. Please check your unfelted and felted gauges by swatching and felting a fair-sized square first.
