These bags are as beautiful as they are practical. Knit them plain or add flowers. Three sizes to choose from.

Knit with a double strand of wool on large needles and then felt, your next favorite purse is a long weekend away.

FLOWER PATTERNS AVAILABLE SEPARATELY

All Noni patterns call for Cascade 220, a skein of 100% wool, 220 yards. We like Galway (210 yards each) for these projects, especially because they are center-pull balls! Your stitches will disappear beautifully once felted.
