Finger Woven Split Shot Pouch by Kris Daman

The woven portion of the pouch is 4 1/2" wide and the length is 13". The bead pattern is based on an original in the Chicago Field Museum. Unlike the original finger woven split shot pouches, I chose to line this one with a hand sewn linen liner that is bound to the opening with silk ribbon.
