Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Crocheting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Funky


Materials

I used Red Heart acrylic yarn in black, two bamboo purse handles I purchased at Michael's and some material I salvaged from an old bedspread.

What was your inspiration?

I really loved the material I used to line the bag. It was an old bedspread that I salvaged some material from. I love the asian them and wanted to make something with an asian feel.

What are you most proud of?

This pattern was a challenge! It was the first purse I'd ever made as well as the first thing I'd ever sewn a liner into.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

The pattern was just one bobble stitch after another and can be a real pain in the wrist......literally.

Really nice. I've made purses (I just make them up as I go most all of the time). Never thought of putting in a lining though (I would crochet them with a smaller needle), I really like the look. Thank you for showing how well it can look.

The lining really helps it keeps its shape.
