IF MAILED, the pattern will have black and white pictures as my color printer has passed away. I can e mail the color pictures for you to print. You need only to ask!!! You can also refer to my listing for color pictures. Free in the USA. International orders, will be sent an invoice with the shipping charges.OROPTION 2: WHY WAIT for the mailman?? The e mailed copy is in full color and has a lay out from a professional graphic designer . It will be sent to your inbox within 24 hours of the payment (usually within just a few hours). Please let me know which option you prefer when you make your payment.If you do not specify an option I will assume that you want me to e mail the pattern to you:)Felted CLUTCH Pattern: by Pipp's Purses Cute little handbags with ‘clutch’ style handles are always in fashion. Your local knitting shops will tell you how handles were ‘the thing’ at this year’s trade shows. Well, here is a pattern that takes that look to the next level! The pattern has instructions for the fur collar. The photo with the roses is another option. I provide the rose instructions as well. OPTIONAL FUR COLLAR!!! I have developed a unique technique of attaching the novelty yarn to the body of the handbag so that it will elegantly drape around the rim of the bag just like a little fur collar. Most patterns will have you knit the novelty along with the wool in to the bag’s body. I really dislike that look. It reminds me of bad hair plugs and doll baby hair. Its a fun way to use up that novelty yarn that is sitting in your stash. ADD ROSES IF YOU WISH!! I have added instructions for felted roses for a touch of whimsy! As you can see in one of the photo’s, you can sew a matching ribbon around the rim with a cute little bow in place of the novelty yarn collar. You can also keep it simple and have no embellishment at all around the rim. Its all up to you! You could embellish the rim with buttons or shells as well….just have fun with it! The pattern requires a little over 420 yards of wool and just one regular skein of novelty eyelash yarn (about 55 yards/optional) to create this chic pattern. It is knit with size 10.5 strait and circular needles which will cause all of your stitches to disappear after you have felted your clutch. My patterns use size 11 or larger leaving visible stitching. When people examine my handbag up close and I tell them that it is actually hand knitted, they get this funny little confused look on their faces because if the lack of visible stitches. The finished bag measures 8.5 inches wide by 4 inches deep and about 8.5 to 9 inches high. I easily carry around my 2 average sized wallets, my cell phone, 3 mini photo albums and sunglasses within this purse. You can find the handles at most craft stores and everyone’s favorite superstore. My personal favorite are these awesome little black plastic bamboo handles from Darice.com. They are very on trend and retail for around $5.00 for a pair. I have even found them on Ebay! I original felting patterns featured in several publications including Interweave’s Felt 2008, a tip in Nicky Epstein’s book, Knitting Never Felt Better , the 2008 and 2009 Pattern a Day Knitting Calendar, 101 Purse to Knit and Crochet. Available in the famous bookstores we all know and love!
