A very delicate feminine purse with 4 ruffles we made from Filatura Di Crosa - Millifili Fine. It is 100% cotton but looks and feels like silk. Great for evenings out or looks good with jeans. It works great with the beautiful purse chain, or you could also use cording; which comes in beautiful colors or make an I-cord of the same yarn.
 
One customer did not sew the underneath seam and threaded elastic through the top and made an adorable skirt for her little granddaughter.
