As seen in Mollie Makes!

The 90s called: it’s time to bring back this sort of fashion nonsense. This fun fluffy bag is a handmade homage to an inflatable lilac one I used to cart about back in the day, when Melissa Joan Hart was our style queen.

The design works up quickly on 5mm needles with jazzy novelty yarn and is made up of simple flat rectangles that are sewn together. Optional pearl beads on the handles give a millennial it-bag twist.
