OOOO this bag is spicy. Love the name of the yarn. Cayenne Pepper. Gives the bag some sass. Its a very stylish bag. The instructions for finishing the bag are very vague however and there are no pictures to explain. Just wondering if they mean to machine sew or hand sew to finish the project.

I agree Hippie Chick this is one spicy bag! I can see making up several of these to go with my wardrobe colors for a spark of pizzazz! This pattern seems to be taken directly from the premier.com website. Maybe when we get to that finishing part Google will be our friend! I would think machine stitching would be stronger but then again we should use what's available to us!
