“Beads make me positively bauble-headed.”
Sometimes seeing spots is a good sign. Linda Cyr worked the elements of this kicky bag separately- stockinette stitch sack, crocheted polka dots, I-cord handle- in “Lion Wool,” felted the whole shebang, then assembled it around a purchased purse frame and lined it.
