By Roz Porter http://www.pineymountaincottage.com/

Any Mid Gauge Machine (I used Silver Reed LK 150)
1 package of bobby pins
GAUGE: 6 sts 8.8 rpi on LK 150 midgauge machine

BAG
Cast on 19 stitches with waste and ravel cord. Knit 6 or 7 rows,
ending with carriage on R
With Suede Yarn, ewrap cast on over ravel cord (2 stitches on
each needle)
*Hang 1 bobby pin on the yarn between the first needle to knit
and the carriage. Make sure the bobbypin is close to the edge
of your work, Knit across. (bobbypin is knitted into the edge
stitch)*
Repeat from * to * for 46 rows, always hanging a bobbypin on the
carriage side each row.
**RC00 Hang the stitches that has a bobbpin in it, removing
the bobbypin (2 sts on edge needle). Knit across**
Repeat from ** to ** until you run out of bobbypins.
FLAP
*Decrease 1 stitch each side and knit 2 rows*
Continue decreasing every other row until you are down to 2 stitche
Pull 1 stitch through the other stitch and break thread.
FRINGE
Pick any fringe from Natalie's
Fringes to finish the flap
I personally liked the way the Suede fringed and added even more
fringe with my latch tool after I finished the edge.
CORD
Set machine to knit 1 way and slip 1 way. Pick up 3 stitches from
the bag where you want cord to attach, hang on needles. Now cord
will knit as it's attached to bag. Continue knitting until the
cord is as long as you want it to be. When it is as long as you
want it to be, break the yarn and pull it through the stitches
as you take them off the needles. Sew this end to where you want
the other side to be attached to bag.
