I designed this as I went along, which means that I’ll have to make another one in order to have a usable pattern. Basically the purse is crocheted in the round from the bottom up. The wallet is crocheted as a flat strip and then sewn down. The big black butterfly on the front of the purse and the small butterfly on the side were done in Patons Grace.

I haven’t knit or crocheted since the end of Februrary. I lost the hook I was using to make Mami’s Shawl, and I’ve been too busy to try and figure out where I left off on my unfinished projects. I am feeling the desire though, so once I’ve updated the site, I’ll try to make sense of those WIPs.
