Artist and designer Jasper Fearnley handcrafts purses out of acrylic yarn, in a similar fashion to rug-making. To make the bags, Jasper tufts, shaves, and sews the fabric together, resulting in purses akin to early 2000s fleece bags. In addition to making “rug bags,” Jasper has experimented with designing other tufted wearables such as chaps, hats, a corset, and a bikini top.
