Mosaic Madness Bag
From Knit and Crochet with Beads A mixed melange of color and texture, this bag uses beads with holes too small to normally knit on yarn. The beads are also rather large in size, again not the type normally used with “regular” bead knitting. The secret is in the carry-along thread. And note how the bottom shaping expands the bad to make it very functional.
