I made this bag as a gift for an Aunt. I wanted to try this pattern since a looong time. So when I decided to make a gift for my Aunt who loves bags, I thought why not. I have made this as an evening bag. The yarn I used has a lovely sheen to it.
Since there are no readymade bag handles available here, I decided to make a handle out of beads. I love how it has turned out. Made a long chain first and then twisted it by holding 5 or 6 layers together. Voila!!
Finished the crocheting part almost a month back. Was too lazy or maybe scared to do the lining job. Finally done with it. Have lined it with black satin because it goes with the evening bag look.
Me happy. Hope she will love it too.
This bag came out beautiful! Sure wish I was your aunt!!

ReplyDeleteThank you so much all of you for your appreciation and encouragement. Means a lot to me. My Aunt loved the bag.
ReplyDelete@Deepa The yarn is sold here in small hanks, no brand name at all. The shopkeeper said its cotton nylon mix, but not sure about that too.
