Shortylam's Nordstrom Hobo Bag Knockoff

[fuzzy ferret]

Here is my version of Shortylam's Nordstrom Hobo Bag Knockoff:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I used Bernat Softee Chunky in "Circus". Since I couldn't find any purse straps and I didn't want to travel 30 miles to get them, I used one of my colorful scarfs that I bought at my local dollar tree for the handle. I think it goes perfect with it! I can change the scarfs out any time I want too also!

 

Thank you shortylam for your gerosity in sharing your pattern. You did a fantastic job in writing it and I tremendously enjoyed making this bag!

 

.......Now all thats left is to line it!

 

(Plus I bought some more yarn in the "Carnival" color to make another one!!!!!......and the pink scarf will go perfect with it also!!!)

Thank you everyone. I've actually made a 2nd bag and finished it today in the same type of yarn but in the "carnival" color. I'll post a pic of it later tomorrow.
