Free Vintage Knitting Pattern!

Another free Vintage Knitting pattern from the 1950's

this one is really nice and simple, but could be customized with beading or embroidery or even just an amazing rich colour...




Enjoy!

re-purposed 1950's handbag






I bought this bag at the South Hobart Tip shop...I bought it specifically to salvage the beads from it...the bag already had a large hole in it and was stained inside etc.

so it took me a little while but I removed all the beads...including the seed beads on the handle...then i washed the beads in a jar with warm soapy water and then let them sit in some white vinegar for a little while.


stay tuned for these beads to be turned into something new!!!
