My husband works construction and when he got home the other day he had 2 large garbage bags 1/2 full of Lama with tons of vim and dust. Today i had to see how it would spin up so i went outdoors picked and shook some out washed and dried and here is what i got!

As promised here is pic of the finished purse. At first i wanted to put the brass handles but they seemed to small and made the opening of the purse impossible so i ended up with the bamboo handles its lined with a black lining and behind the knitting is a sliver black swirled shiny fabric. Well what do you think comments please?
