One Ball Knits Purses: 20 Stylish Handbags Made With a Single Ball, Skein, Hank, or Spool
A sensational-looking purse is a woman's most essential fashion accessory. This new One Ball Knits book features twenty different designer-caliber handbag designs–each created from a single ball of yarn.
The book's "Basics" section covers all the essentials, and each project includes complete knitting and assembly instructions that even beginning knitters will find easy to follow. Comprehensive materials lists specify every component–from yarn to hardware–that each purse requires.
The projects are organized by five each for spring, summer, fall, and winter. From the comfortably casual to the sleekly chic, you'll find designs that complement all of your personal styles. And no one will ever guess just how simple and fun these purses are to make.

A surprising variety of purses given that they all have to be small with only one skein of yarn to work with. I'm addicted to bags but I gravitate towards larger ones and already have a bunch of project books so little grabbed me with one exception: there's a box purse that's really different and cute that I'm excited about. It's a very simple knit pattern so I may adjust it but I love the idea.
Overall, this is a great book for someone who likes to knit small handbags and doesn't have a large collection of purse pattern books already.

Some nice projects, only I don't like knit purses. I just wanted to look but not make.
