This pattern is available from etsy.com for AU$4.00.

This pattern is perfect for beginners who know the basic crochet stitches. The pattern is written out twice depending on your skill level. The first is a quick read version with common abbreviations for each stitch. The second version is written much more detailed and includes photos for each step to help you along the way.

It will take approximately 2 hours to complete. For this purse I used Marvel 12ply yarn which I sourced from Spotlight, but any yarn will work fine.
