Add a little sparkle to your evening with this Reversible Evening Envelope Bag. For a quiet, understated look, display the Horizontal Moorish Lattice side with black seams. If you want added glitz, show the Vertical Moorish Lattice side with gold seams. This purse is small enough to sling over your shoulder and forget, but large enough to carry your bare essentials. Crocheted with nylon, it has a beautiful sheen as well as strength. So, whether your evening includes dancing at a crowded night club or having a quiet dinner with someone special, choose the side that fits your mood.

Gauge: 5 boxes = 2” (5cm)
