Tried it and it turned out beautifully. Made three and gave them as gifts to my in-laws. It's easy to knit and the pattern is beautiful. Thanks for this!

Can't wait to make this. My girlfriend keeps a plastic ziplock Baggie in her purse. She NEEDS this.

This is really a cute coin purse. I had trouble with the BO, as the flap curled and I tried a purl and a knit BO. Any suggestions?
