Mosiac Purse

(c)

 

My first try at making a crocheted purse.

 

(c)

It is worked using Mosaic Crochet.

The pattern is worked in "I" and "V" stitch repeats using 3 colors of size 10 thread.

It was a pretty easy pattern to follow just making a large rectangle and then shaping it.  It took quite a while, tho since all those stitches are single crochet using a size 5 hook !!!  Plus a lot of setting it  aside to make a few other projects along the way before the holidays.....It also has a fabric lining with a magnet snap.

Also the "V" stitch is running threw the middle of the handle for a little decorative touch.
