Well, as promised, here is a picture of my shimmer purse that I made. It is the first purse I made as a new knitter. Each of the gals in my knitting group made one, in different colors of course, and then four of us took them to our conference and used them for our banquet night (except one, she took it to conference but forgot to use it for the banquet). Yes, she felt bad. I must say, our purses were stunning and we didn't look too bad either.
