Tatted Drawstring Bag

My first tatting bag. I used DMC # 10 thread. Fun to make and easy too! I found the pattern in a book from the library. 'Tatting: contemporary art of knotting with a shuttle', by Rhoda L Auld.

Hi I have just caught up with your blog and have seen your drawstring tatted bag. This seems to be the very same pattern I got from a book in the 1980's and have refined over the years as a bridal bouquet bag.
