Noni Bags

These felted bags by fiber artist and designer Nora Bellows are simply captivating. I’m utterly besotted. Can’t you imagine yourself daintily clutching one of these, while gliding down the cobblestone walkways of gay, 1930s Paree on the arm of Maurice Chevalier after an exhilarating evening at Les Folies Bergère? Très magnifique!
Knitting patterns are available at New York Knits for the lucky devils whose dance cards aren’t completely full yet.

I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one who loves her designs! I’ve been completely obsessed since I stumbled upon them a couple weeks ago.

I ordered all the Cascade yarns for the Noni patterns yesterday. I can’t wait to get started on the large and medium carpet bags. I spoke to Nora Bellows yesterday and her new patterns will be available for her new bag designs very soon. The new Jacquard pattern bags are gorgeous. I am going to knit some of these carpet bags with Camellia flowers for Christmas gifts. I ‘m looking forward to getting started.
