Violetta Purse

ENGLISH

The purse/pencil case is knitted in the round on circular needles using the woven stitch technique in a twill pattern that resembles herringbone. The magic loop technique is used, and the piece is cast on with an invisible cast-on. Tabs in double knitting are worked at each end, and finally, a zipper is sewn in place using needle and thread. The lining is then sewn (either by machine or by hand) and mounted inside the purse/pencil case. The pattern also includes
sewing instructions for the lining.
