Kandi Bag/Purse!

ThatOneQu33rKid 2/2/2023 02:34 pm 868

So, I just made my first kandi bag (if needed, I can attach photos), and I was wondering how you get it to hold form. Rn it's kind just.....collapsed? Any ideas other then lining the inside with cardboard? Tyyyy <33

It just depends on how tight you pulled on the string when making the panels, sewing it up, and what string you actually used

you probably have to re-string it with either a stronger string (like a fabric wrapped one) or pull tighter laughing

to make the panels stiffer, use a less stretchy string or even fishing wire / some other string non-stretchy thing.

I strung my bag with fishing line. It's a Pain in the butt, but totally worth it bc it holds it's shape very well. recommend making the strap from stretch cord though bc the ends of fishing line when you add more can be very pokey. good luck!hkheart
