Materials Needed:

Worsted weight cotton yarn (approximately 100 yards in dark green)

Crochet hook size G (4.0 mm)

Scissors

Yarn needle for weaving in ends

Optional: decorative flower (for embellishment)

Gauge:

To ensure your project turns out the right size, check your gauge by making a 4" x 4" square. You should have approximately 12 double crochets and 9 rows in that square. Adjust your hook size if necessary.

Abbreviations:

ch = chain

dc = double crochet

sl st = slip stitch

st = stitch

Instructions:

Base:

Make a slip knot and chain 4. Join to form a ring with a sl st.

Round 1: Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc), work 11 dc into the ring. Join with a sl st to the top of the ch 3. (12 dc)

Round 2: Ch 3, dc in the same st, 2 dc in each st around. Join with sl st to the top of ch 3. (24 dc)

Round 3: Ch 3, dc in the same st, *dc in next st, 2 dc in the next st; repeat from * around. Join with sl st to the top of ch 3. (36 dc)

Body:

Continue to work dc in each st for 10 rounds, without increasing. This will create the body of the purse.

Finishing:

After completing the last round, cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Pull the tail through the last st and tighten.

Using the yarn needle, weave in all ends securely.

Optional: Attach a decorative flower on the front of the purse for added charm.

To create straps, make a long chain of approximately 50-60 ch. Attach to the sides of the purse using sl st.

Blocking:

To give your purse a polished look, lightly steam it or soak it in water and lay it flat to dry. This will help enhance the shape.

Optional Variations:

Change the yarn color for different seasons.

Add a lining for a more finished look.

Add beads or other embellishments to personalize your purse.

Your lovely crochet flower basket purse is now complete! Fill it with flowers or other treasures, and enjoy your beautiful handiwork.
