Fit to be Tied

[amydepew]

I just finished it tonight from the Happy Hooker book. The pic makes it look candy apple red, but it's really the wine colorway from Red Heart Soft Yarn. I lined it with denim and put a gingham ribbon through the slots. I must crochet extremely tightly because I had to add an extra 10 rows just to make it this big...and it's still very small! LOL!!

You've done a very nice job on that., I am going to have to make one of those.. I really like them. Did it take long for you to make???? Those would make great gifts.

Thanks! It works up incredibly fast because it's all only one piece...even a novice like me can do it! Because I crochet so very tight, I think next time I will up my hook size by two or three, but if you crochet fairly loose, then I think you will find that your purse will turn out a much more "useable" size than mine is. It's just pretty small, to be honest. I can fit my cell phone, keys, ID, bank card, chapstick and lip gloss...and THAT'S IT. However, come to think of it...what else should I be carrying in there? LOL!

 

Oh, and PS...I don't have a sewing machine so I had to line it by hand. If you are going to make this, I would really suggest using a machine to get better results. I saw another one of these that someone had made that even lined the handles...it looked magnificent that way.

Those could be made in any colors and WOULD make great Christmas gifts. I'm going to have to keep that in mind. Yours turned out great!
