    TA-Da! My Abagayle Purse and Pattern Are Finally Finished!

    This is a pattern that caused a lot of personal angst. I wrote and crocheted the original wa-a-a-y back in 2008. Weeding through my unpublished patterns, i came across it the other day, and decided it was time to publish it.

    This is the original, done in lovely yarn. I don't have the yarn at this time to make a new one, and the original was donated ages ago. So to test my pattern, and put it into normal crochet terms, I did a new one using size 10 thread, and sizes 5 and 7 hooks. Here's how it came out:

    Doily flap and doily pocket. See how tiny it is in thread?
