Silk Tie Bucket Purse

Does your husband, son or other tie wearing person have ties that they don't want?  

Well grab them and make them into a purse!

 Here's what Halle said:

I checked out this book from the library last week and knew I had to make a tie bag.

I had these ties stashed away knowing someday I'd use them.

It took me a couple of hours to put together. I broke a needle on my machine as well in the process. First time I've ever done that!

I learned that I had to manually "walk" the stitching forward by turning it by hand through the thick areas. Such technically accurate terms huh?! I am a trial and error girl. I don't follow directions well. This may be an issue in my quest to learn to knit...

 

Thanks Halle for another great project!  Visit Halle's blog for more fun too.
