..and is kind enough to share her secret method for making the GORGEOUS little knitted handbag that Dolly is holding! Isn't it the cutest little thing??? (...if you'll excuse my rough attempt at Photoshopping out the background!!).
Dolly Handbag Patternby Bronwen Webb
Chenille knitting yarn
3.0mm knitting needles
Bag pieces, make 2:
Cast on 22 sts
Garter stitch (every row knit) for 13 rows -
14th row Knit one, knit 2 together until one stitch left then knit one (12 sts)
Knit 2 rows
Cast off
Handle:- Cast on 30 stitches
Cast off all stitches
To sew the bag together, use a matching sewing thread.
Place bag pieces right sides together and back stitch around 3 sides leaving the cast off edge open to form the bag opening. Turn right side out and stitch the handle at sides of opening across the side seams. Stitch a small bead to front of bag as shown.
