I've just recently had someone ask if I could make a sporran for them.

Are there patterns available, or did you just "wing" it?

I'm just curious: How is a sporran different than a purse?

I think that Sporran is pronounced with a scottish brogue, and purse isn't......

As coming from Scottish ancestory, I think I can spill the secret, Sporran really means "man purse".

That was a joke.....

Tom, a sporran is the "pockets" of a kilt. It's worn in the front like a belt pouch both to keep your keys etc in, but also to keep the kilt from doing a "Marilyn". So really the only difference is where one wears it. (Though there is somewhat of a size limitation when wearing any sort of pouch as a sporran!)
