Sock Change Purse pattern

“Another great way to fly your knitting colors. This change purse (or case for your stitch holders) teaches two techniques: a figure-8 toe-up cast on and a short row heel. The version pictured is knit with silk, which makes it special. Knit with sock yarn, you can coordinate with your favorite socks!“ ~Joan
