Noni "Two Flavors" Felted Bag Pattern + Hardware Kit — Two Frame Purses (Pattern No. 162, by Nora J. Bellows)

A  Noni "Two Flavors" pattern + hardware kit (Pattern No. 162, First Edition Spring 2013, by Nora J. Bellows). Two felted-wool frame purses worked in the round on US 10½ needles, then fulled in the washer and finished with metal kiss-lock frames, chain handles, glass-bead trim, and an embroidered button closure. A complete small-project kit — make both bags from a single skein of worsted-weight wool.

This listing is for one new, factory-sealed Noni "Two Flavors" kit as photographed. The Noni cover-shot price ticket is intact: original retail $57.95. Yarn is not included — the pattern is written for Stonehedge Fiber Mill Shepherd's Wool (one 4 oz / 250 yd skein makes both bags).

About the designer. Noni is the long-running pattern line of Nora J. Bellows — a Pittsburgh-based designer who taught a generation of knitters how to felt structural bags, flowers, and small sculptural accessories. The Noni patterns are known for clever frame and hardware integration: each design ships as a complete kit so the maker doesn't have to source obscure purse frames separately. "Two Flavors" is one of Bellows's signature small-bag patterns — two finished objects from a single skein, both with proper metal frames you'd struggle to find on your own.
