[Nfb-krafters-korner] sturdy purse

[Becky Frankeberger]

Woo hoo!Carol! you rock, smile. Tunisian indeed makes a dense fabric, great
for a purse or bag, slippers, coat, all kinds of neat uses. Oh cover throw
pillows, bar stool covers, and the list goes on to lacy things as well,
smile.

Or, if you can wait about 3 weeks for me to get home, I can teach you
tunisian crochet.  It makes a sturdy little bag.

Use 100% wool and felt it after you loom it.  That will tighten it up  and
you won't have to line it.

Hi  Cathy,
Worsted weight acrilic yarn.  I would love to use the smallest loom  but
that would be too loose.  So I thought about trying circular needles.  But I
am still in the thinking stages.  I don't want to make a lining for the
purse.
What ideas do you have?

 Henrietta,

 What kind of yarn, wool,  acrylic, cotton? What method are you thinking of
using to make the  bag, knit or what?

 Cathy
