This little evening bag was inspired by the classic Chanel bag that has seen so many incarnations in anything from pastel leather to ostrich skin, so why not a knitted version?

The lattice work cable pattern mimics the quilted look of the original bag and the pure silk yarn makes this a pleasure to knit.

Errata:

There is an error in the cable pattern see below for the corrected version.
