Lace Knit Purse

Here's a little something I knitted up for a friend's birthday a few months back.  Her favourite colour is purple so this sparkly yarn had her name written all over it.  I began to knit the Lacy Drawstring Bag pattern from Textured Knits (Julia Cooper) but decided to freestyle it into a purse instead.
I used a contrast mint coloured yarn and added this minature sweet buttons for the opening.
It went down a treat!

You can buy the book here

It's got some great patterns in it, I'll post my other knits from it soon!
