Isabeau Purse
Pattern is here: http://www.chezplum.com/pdf/isabeau_purse.pdf
and the Craftster KAL where i first found the pattern is here: http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=77317.0

My attempt is pretty floppy, I havent bothered to line it because i'm never going to use it for anything more than holding yarn and the odd knitting utensil :) I used pretty thin yarn, I probably could have double stranded it but didnt think to. I used one ball of Twinkle yarn by Moda Vera which you can get in Australian Spotlight stores.

The seaquins were a pain in the butt as they got caught when i was trying to Crochet seam the sides.

If you read through the posts on Craftster i'm pretty sure the designer of the purse created a cool tutorial on how to crochet seam - dont let that put you off cos its really easy, i've never crochet before an i did it just fine :) I did stuff up the sides though, i made one longer than the other so when it came time to seam up they didnt quite match- I think it looks icky but other people assure me you'd never notice unless you specifically knew it was there. The bag is too floppy to take a picture of the sides and i didnt have anyone else around when i took the photo

My parter thought it looked like vomit, when he came home and saw me knitting it he was like.... "EEEEW are you knitting VOMIT!!!"
I think that was the beginning of the end for this poor purse...... and for the one remaining ball that i have.... hey swap parter if you like the above you might just end up with it! ha ha :)

These are SO COOL, and addictive as i've already said. Black ones dont photograph so well, the knit stitches really pop out in real life.
I used Shaun Sheap yarn in Flinders for this - its another specialty yarn made for Big W stores in Australia. I didnt even use one ball for it, about half.
