    I made my first bag from scrap yarn using this lens as a guide last week. I had no idea whether or not the yarn was wool and suspected there was a mixture of wool and acrylic. For a first attempt I am pleased with the result. The bag felted nicely after the second run. I just need to work on getting the strap to sit flatter. Thanks. I could get into this! I just favourited your Etsy store as well

    This is great news. So glad the step-by-step lens is working. I find that if I hold two yarns together, making sure at least one of them is definitely wool, the purse turns out great! Thank you for the feed back, blessing, likes, comments and favoriting my Etsy. Whew, that's a great cheering section! Blessings in return.

    How about "Odds & Ends" just because that is always what I find in the bottom of my purse.

    I would call it the Mary Jane, like the classic shoes. It looks like a classic design that everyone would like.

    Id call it Baguette in a play on words (Ba get). I love your clear instructions and how you tell us what we need to know to make this great purse.

    I love this bag and as a beginner I soooo appreciate your list of what you need to know to be able to make it (having gotten over my head a few times). I could make this! I would name it Baguette Pronunciation: ba get as a play on words.

    Thank you for the nice compliments. And thanks for adding a purse name to the contest.

    I'd call it "Satch" -- short for "satchel".
