Description
Noni – Girly Backpacks with Pansies in mini, small and medium sizes, by Nora J Bellows.
“Pansies planted in Fall will grow and bloom all winter, recovering over and over from frosts and snow to burst into fabulous effusion in the spring and keep right on going into summer. These girly packpacks, ideal for all seasons, will, like pansies, colour you all Fall and Winter and paint your back in Spring and Summer.
Pansies are knit separately on double pointed needles and then attached after felting. The girly backpack, offered in three sweet sizes from large to mini, is feminine and fun, the perfect bag to keep you in bloom through all seasons”.
