I have swapped my ‘wallet’ for this knitted purse and it does me proud, as well as getting lots of comments.

Once a barman looked shocked when I got it out. He said he thought it was an old sock!!! I decided to knit myself a new one after that (that particular one was very old!) and hence this pattern was created, offering six different charts to follow to make six different purses.

Very simple and quick to knit. They make great presents too!

There is an updated version of this pattern in my new book Anyone Can Knit
