This is UNIQUE! An elegant, knitted pineapple bag, adorned with silver pearl beads and beaded tassels. And with this free pattern, you get to knit your own.
It’s a vintage pattern, published in 1840, by Mrs. Jane Gaugain in her book "The Lady’s Assistant, for executing useful and fancy designs in knitting, netting, and crochet work". I have never seen anything like it, although it’s obviously been around for a while.
Do you like it? It’s a little crazy, isn’t it??!!

Very cool! Looks pretty!
Does anyone know how to do the tassels in the picture? – I don’t see instructions included with the pattern.
I was wondering if I could get the pattern for the pineapple purse! I’m already a subscriber, and I haven’t received an email with the pattern on it. I checked both junk and inbox, and haven’t seen it in either. Thank you for your time!
