Birdies Crochet and Craft: A Perfect Purse

NOTES OF INTEREST:

Just Crochet/Craft Idea's: It's been a very long time since I have posted anything to my Blog. Due to family and life in general, I got a little detoured. I will try to get time to type up some new entries. I have created a lot of items, gave them away and did not take pictures or type them up. We lost both of our boys this year. Jiggy in March and Stubby in July. We have a new friend her name is MayBee (due to the fact that we weren't quite sure about keeping her). She's 4 years old and full of energy. I make her Kitty Strings with yarn, it was such a hit, I donated some to the local animal shelter. I'll try to put them on the Blog next week. As usual, if you have questions about crafting or crochet, I will answer them under the post where you leave the comment. Thanks for stopping by. Birdie

A Perfect Purse

I was hunting around on the free pattern sites for a purse to go with the poncho for Fall and came across this pattern called "A Perfect Hobo Bag". As all crocheters know, not all patterns work out as one would expect, right? Well this is the most perfect pattern I've ever tried, one piece continuous exactly as written. I used the same yarn as in my poncho. I had to pass it on, so here is the picture of the one I made and the site where you get the pattern:
