This versatile purse can be made into a clutch or a crossbody bag. The design is made using elements of the sunburst motif, making it a great accessory to the other sunburst motif items in my pattern collection. It works up very quickly and is perfect for vendor market prep. The lining is a canvas bag that you hot glue inside your crochet bag, making it easy, sturdy, and very cost-effective.
