Bougainvillea Handbag - free pattern from Hobby Lobby

[sahm2g1b]

I made this yesterday. My daughter wanted to make one but is still fairly new to crochet and reading patterns, so, as I walked her through the pattern, I made one myself. We used Red Heart yarn instead of the Nylon thread that it called for since I knew that would be easier for her to work with. It's a fun, easy pattern that works up quickly.

Lovely.

Looks great. Nice size too! I didn't realize just how big it was until I saw the photo of the bag hanging from a shoulder

Thank you! When I make it again, I will probably tighten up my stitches some. I kept them loose so that my daughter could follow easily. It's a nice size, though.

Oh thanks for sharing. I got this pattern a while ago but haven't made it because I wasn't sure how it would look in ww. Now I just have to pic a color!

FYI: It will take a full skein to make.

I like the size and style of the bag.

This is a really pretty bag. I'm so ashamed I haven't made myself a tote, yet. I've seen so many pretty ones on this forum. Thanks, all, for showing your pics of them.

Thanks for the heads up on the full skein.
