Hello,
Every time my mom went to the store, she tucked her money INSIDE her shirt. She had a few purses but she didn't like them. So I offered to make her one. She chose the color and the size of the purse. And this is what I made her. The purse measured about 5 x 9 inches. The handle was about 30 inches.
For the purse handle I used 2 rows of 3 dc clusters and single crochet stitches on each side to help prevent stretching.
I hand stitched the liner and the zipper. It look much nicer then my first crochet purse.
I asked her to add a big rose, the same color, to the purse but she said she's too old for that. She carried it every time we went to the store. So I guessed she likes it. I think the purse would look much nicer with the rose. May be I'll make another one with the rose.
The inspiration was from here.
