    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Magical Misers Purses ~ Crochet Patterns with Victorian Inspiration Published by DMC Corporation]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Inspired by a gift Gwen received from her Great Aunt Ruth, led Gwen and B. J. to continue to search and research these charming little purses. Good friends and avid crocheters, they landed on the idea of writing a book to share their discoveries about these charming Victorian-era accessories The ring-and-chain type purse highlighted in this book is “a marvelously ingenious container, because one hardly knows there is an opening. Only two fingers will comfortably reach through the chains to extract a coin–surely the struggle gave pause to the ‘miser’ before he would spend his tightly held wealth!” Several purses in this book were inspired by vintage patterns, which have been completely revised and re-written for contemporary crocheters. Most are modern-day interpretations of an old theme.”]]></dcterms:description>
