This was one of my evolving projects, I was on a "making flowers" kick and then needed to make them into something. So I thought of a nice summer handbag/purse.
I love the yarn I used, its Sirdar's Luxury soft 4Ply cotton yarn. It does have the tendancy to split but its lovely to work with and the finished product is so soft and touchable.
I didn't want to make a plain or just striped bag, so I used the spike stitch to create a nice effect.
I also didn't want to just sew some flowers onto the bag as "decoration" so I made the flap from them
Just for fun I also threw in a small butterfly in the flowers :)
I have not decided if this is for sale or not yet ....
Wow, that's lovely!
