Easy crochet summer handbag Pattern

  I wanna tell you the story how I came to crochet this purse. I was in a bank, a week or so ago and I saw a lady with a nice sleeveless dress and holding a small silver crochet bag, a little bigger than this one and I immediately thought, Wow! people like to carry crochet work! it looked nice how she carried it, so I thought why not share this with you all. Crochet is very diverse, can be elegant and chic, or cozy and homey, but it is always pretty and fascinating when seen on others.

So I have in mind many ideas of different crochet bag, but this one was first, easy and cool for now.

I hope you like it and will try and make your own, you can use thicker yarn or lighter using 2 strands, it is completely up to you, so head on to the pattern and everything that you need.
