shop clients. Your comments are always welcome.
We really love ruffled purses. Here are two versions
of the same purse.
Each purse has three ruffles.
The upper edge of A is gathered on a small wood purse handle and
a silk flower is pinned to the front.
The upper edge of B is spread over a metal purse fame and sequins are randomly sewn
on ruffles.
Purses are knit in Plymouth's Baby Alpaca dk
