I'm not very good at writing knitting patterns, so I'm sorry if it doesn't entirely make sense in places - feel free to correct me and I'll fix it.

BO -
Take a length of white yarn and a yarn needle. Fold the knitted rectangle in half width ways and knit around the edges, leaving the top edge open.
-
Take some white fabric and draw around the outline of the knitted purse so that it's twice the height but slightly shorter in width.
-
Fold the fabric in half, so that it's half the height and sew a zip in along the top.
(I used black thread because I was too lazy to rethread my machine, but you should probably use white). -
Sew down both open sides of the fabric to make a pouch.
-
Place the pouch inside the knitted purse and stitch it in place by sewing along the top edge with the white yarn.
-
Cut off any lose yarn and you're ready to go!
