Show Powder Puffs for the Purse. Little crocheted powder puffs are the latest novelty for fhe purse. They can easily be made at home. Crochet two circular pieces about the size of a silver dollar out of mercerized mer-cerized cotton of any shade desired. Carefully sew them together, leaving small openings through which to pour in the powder. Fill the bag full with the powder, so that it will sift through easily when patted gently on the face. Then make a pretty edge around the circular piece by crocheting a few rows of plain chain stitch, each added row to be caught into the middle of the preceding one, which gives a sort of ruffle effect. An opening can safely safe-ly be made by cutting a stitch or two when it is necessary to refill the puff. |
