Originally published in 1924, this hard-to-find vintage beading book has been reprinted with all of the original pages and designs. This book shows you how to create 19 flapper era purses using a combination of knitting or crochet stitches (depending on pattern) and sliding beads after stitches in sequence with the instructions. Four purses are knit with beads, the rest are crochet with beads. In addition, instructions are provided to make 6 necklaces.

A sampling of purses and necklaces are shown in the pictures.
