Pictured Samples

Each of the bags pictured was made using Stonehedge Fiber Mill Shepherd's Wool. Vianne is pictured in Hot Pink and Zinnia Pink.

The dove gray leather fringe is made from Italian leather soft and supple as a horse's nose. Punched at regular intervals, it is easy to apply to the top of your bag with either double-capped rivets or cabochon rivets.

The bag closes with an ingenious use of the Amazing snap closure. Clip beautiful USA-made leather handles to the handle brackets on each side of the bag and you can start filling it with all your favorite things. Or use it as the coolest knitting bag around. Simple and fast to knit, the finishing is pretty easy, too. What makes this bag special, and will make some ladies dash across busy streets to ask you about it, is the fabulous hardware and handle and the fabulous leather fringe!

Pictured samples

Both of the samples pictured were created using Stonehedge Fiber Mill Shepherd's Wool. The small sample was made in Granite. The large sample was made with Storm.

I have a particular love for oversized shoulder bags and handbags. I like the drama of a large bag and I like that I can be prepared for the unexpected with emergency rations, hand-sanitizer, extra masks, a cloth napkin, metal cuttlery (you never know when you might need to order take out!), and, of course, a knitting project (or two). In the days of movies, I have even been known to stow away some home-popped pop corn.

What I really don't like, however, is digging around in my big purse for my wallet or change when I am standing at the check-out line at the grocery store, hardware store, or pet store (my only go-tos these days). I like to get what I need, pay, and go. 

Ready, Set, Go! makes efficient shopping perfection. The key ring attachment (choose from two styles) allows you to clip her to your belt loop, or purse handle, or just wear as a bracelet by clipping a 10 inch (25cm) Classic Purse Chain to the key ring on the back. 

Dress her up with beading, a brooch, or other embellishments and she's a lovely companion for a future party. I can see this little purse coming with me on lots of adventures when I need the absolute essentials but little else. 

If you prefer, you can also purchase this pattern on Ravelry.
