If I make another, I'll also have to make the strings a little longer, as my wallet is a little too wide to make it through them. Very interesting pattern though!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334660187375665433.post-51184596659075819782012-02-03T05:36:55.480-08:002012-02-03T05:36:55.480-08:00Hi Jenn...Thanks for the beautiful pattern! I am h...Hi Jenn...Thanks for the beautiful pattern! I am having the same problem as a previous poster....once I get to row 22, I have only one chain drawstring left, not two, as instructions call for. I have 15 drawstrings just like it says. Starting from row 8, counting each row, there are 15 rows including row 22. Any suggestions? (I skipped row 16 for a fix but haven't went beyond that point yet to see if that is going to work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334660187375665433.post-40282187958008072802012-01-09T07:58:55.318-08:002012-01-09T07:58:55.318-08:00Thanks Deb!

I think miser's bags can be very confusing the first time you make them, so I'm very glad you found the pattern easy to follow.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345114690164621997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334660187375665433.post-71795456358209185052012-01-09T02:03:38.472-08:002012-01-09T02:03:38.472-08:00Thank you for your very clear instructions.

I started this & couldn't quite wrap my brain around it, so asp I have learned to do in difficult patterns, I just follow what is written to the tee, and voila it was perfect! Was I ever surprised that I completed my very FIRST Miser bag on my first attempt. Great job Jenn, the pictures really helped a lot. I can see myself making these for a long time.Deedeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04855256397580071505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334660187375665433.post-18203920115005382502011-08-09T21:34:21.679-07:002011-08-09T21:34:21.679-07:00Thank you for the beautiful pattern!

I did appear to have one fewer drawstring than the pattern called for (row 22 of the flap has two drawstrings being pulled over or one pulled over twice? I had fifteen strings) and I couldn't figure out how to properly attach the tassel, though I got it on there. Other than that, I had no difficulty and the bag looks great.<br /><br />Thank you again,<br /><br />SarahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334660187375665433.post-58518484101527781212011-08-05T19:50:06.520-07:002011-08-05T19:50:06.520-07:00This is a wonderful thing you have done.

I changed the pattern a little by keeping the same color and doing beads where you have dots. I used #10 crochet thread and an 8 hook. <br />thanks again.<br />MarjiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334660187375665433.post-73653376108802208742011-03-22T05:28:15.700-07:002011-03-22T05:28:15.700-07:00Took me a few tries and with lotta yelling at the ...Took me a few tries and with lotta yelling at the wall, I finally had a eureka moment and it all fell into place and now I am the proud owner of a miser bag and all because your pattern and you saw me through.
