JCrew Crocheted-Petal Hobo

[Leighlink]

Hi All:

There is a beautiful crocheted hobo bag on JCrew's website. I will try to add a link for it. I swear it is the same one designed by Doris Chan on the crochet today website (the free pattern). Thoughts??

That's really cute I'll have to go check out the free pattern.

The JCrew one is very similar....I think the free pattern is a little lacier and smaller...but very close! They are both very nice!

Can someone link to Doris Chan's free pattern? I can't find it.

I went to the site www.crochettoday.com and hd to sign up for their free patterns. the confirmation e-mail included the link to the pattern.

 

It does look very similar!

It is similar, you're right.

I just took a look, signed up and printed out the pattern. Yes, they do look very much alike.....just what I need.....another idea! I can see this purse so many ways! The first that jumped into my head was thread in white or cream, with pearls..........what do you think?
