In this video, I'll show you to knit a small messenger bag style purse, using a 46 or 48 needle circular knitting machine (Addi Express Kingsize or 48 needle Sentro knitting machine) and a 22 needle Addi or Sentro knitting machine.

The techniques I'll show include: how to cast on and off a knitting machine using scrap yarn, how to seam the open sides of knitting machine tubes, how to assemble a knit bag, and how to use the mattress stitch to seam the sides together.
