PetiteKnit Marie Purse pattern
The pattern for the PetiteKnit Marie Purse is an A5-sized high-quality printed magazine in Finnish.
The instructions use Sandnes Garn's Peer Gynt and Double Sunday yarns or Knitting for Olive's Soft Silk Mohair yarn. Alternatively, the mohair yarn can be replaced with Kremke Soul Wool's Silky Kid yarn.
The Marie Purse is knitted using the Magic Loop technique and worked from the bottom up. The purse is worked in in garter slip stitch. A zipper is sewn in, and the lining is first sewn and then sewn into the purse. The pattern also contains the sewing instructions for the lining.
