This volume offers more than 50 handbags to sew, knit, or crochet - from basic hard-working everyday styles to glamorous evening bags. Patterns and step-by-step instructions are included, with tips on designing, choosing materials, plus adding decorative and durable linings.
This is a slightly dated but looks pretty good basic book on making bags, the kind of book you look for if you want to dip a toe into the bag-making pond.
Some of it is quite repeditive in shapes but it does explore a lot of variations and many of the adaptations would induce you to try out more ideas.
