“In the beginning, there was a rectangle. Shortly thereafter, there were multitudes of simple knit accessories whipped up from these rectangles. An intarsia monogram anchors the front panel of this piece, while a chunky I-cord and leaf cluster transform it into a functional, personalized and peerless handbag” - Hip Graphic Knits
