Perfect for spring occasions, here is an adorable carrot shaped purse or bag that can be used for so many things. You also get a 2nd pattern for a play time carrot toy that fits inside the bag.

Use as a snack bag, small toy tote for short car trips, gift bag for sweet treats for teachers or friends for Easter. It would even be a good place for pencils, crayons, and a small writing pad.

There are options for making it a wrist-let or a purse.
Carrot toy is also a good baby safe toy. Add a jingle bell for a cute toddler toy. (Kitties would love it too!)

It works up very quickly and can be finished in a day.
