This retro looking shoulder bag is a fun purse to make! Skill level is Advanced Beginner and the beautiful Noro Kueryon self striping yarn is used.

One reader contacted me and said that her circles were not laying flat like it’s shown in the photo. I told her that the tip I sent in with the manuscript was left out of the book. Here’s the tip: If you want your circles to look the way they are shown in the photo you may want to sew them down from the wrong side with a sewing needle and thread.

I did not put this tip as part of the pattern because some people may want them to stand out more.
