A stylish sack purse which is both roomy and sturdy.
Use double strands of Cascade 220 wool throughout. Start with a square garter stitch bottom made on double pointed needles from the center out. Continue the sides in the round in stockinette stitch on circular needles. The I cord strap goes through four buttonholes in the garter stitch top edge. The purse closes with a buttonhole flap. Use three colors of wool, two held together at a time to form subtle stripes.
