backpacks, however my next one I'm using the purse cords instead


BackPack Cord:  {LOOK AT PHOTO FOR CORD PLACEMENT}
ch 170, sl st in each st, finish off with long tail
with FRONT facing you, Weave through opening on
row 30 to center back on both sides, Now take boths
ends down "back" to beginning of row 18, slip one
end through to wrong side, now do the same with
the other end making sure to have maybe 2 or 3 sts
in-between the 2 cords, secure firmly together
inside the bakpack, turk in tails


Purse Tie Cords: Make 2
ch 130 leaving long cords

Weave 1 cord through opening on row 18 attach ends together,
weave 2nd cord opposite of first cord, attach ends together
gentle pull both cords opposite of eachother and tie into a
lovely bow at top of bag, OR slips both cords over your shoulder
and use as a "BIG" purse
