Here’s a wonderful purse you can crochet today!
Thanks to the self-striping yarn, this crochet bag is a breeze from start to finish. No changing colors and trying to weave in those pieces of yarn. In a very short amount of time you’ll have a new bag to add to your collection or for someone on your gift list! As an item for sale at a crafts fair, this could be a bestseller, too. You never know!
This wonderful pattern is absolutely free! It’s the “Cool Stripes” by renown crochet designer and instructor Jennifer Pionk of A Crocheted Simplicity. You’ll find a written pattern that will guide you to success. She recommends Red Heart Super Saver Stripes Yarn and you’ll get the purchase details you need at her blog.
The pattern uses basic stitches. In case you’re not familiar with the Herringbone Half Double Crochet stitch we’ve linked YouTube tutorial videos — right hand and left hand — that will get you up to speed quickly!
