Foundation Single Crochet

Step 1: Chain 2

Step 2: Insert hook into 2nd chain from hook and draw up a loop.

Step 3: Chain 1 (not too tightly!) Place a stitch marker here.

Step 4: Now complete your single crochet as normal by doing a yarn over and drawing through the 2 loops on the hook.

Step 5: Insert your hook in the base chain of the previous stitch (aka where we put our stitch marker) and pull up a loop. Remove stitch marker if using.

Repeat Steps 3-5 for as many foundation single crochets as your pattern calls for. You will end on step 4.

Purse

Make a sc foundation ch as long as you want your purse to be.

Ch 1, turn, 1 hdc in each st to end, repeat this until you have the width of your purse.

Once you have the width of your purse you will sc all around putting 2 sc, ch2, 2 sc in each corner ending with a slip st.

This is where you will add your fabric to your purse.

Now fold your purse in half and sew up the sides.

 

Now add your D rings to the side of the purse by sewing them on.

 

Zipper

1 sc in each hole of zipper, once at end of zipper ch 3 and continue to sc on other side ch 3 end with a sl st.

Now add the zipper to the purse by sewing the zipper on, then enjoy your purse.
