Toddler Purses Crochet Patterns
Eleven small purses, all sized for a child who is going to sling it over one shoulder and then drop it in the yard. That sizing decision drives everything else in these patterns: the strap is short enough that the bag sits at the hip rather than the knee, the opening is wide enough for a small hand to reach into without looking, and the body is worked in a dense stitch so it holds its shape when it is empty.
Nine of the eleven are worked in the round with no side seams, which is what keeps them sturdy. The Mermaid Tears purse finishes at about 6.5 inches tall in size 4 worsted on a J hook, and the rest sit in the same band - one skein each, an afternoon or an evening once the stitch pattern clicks.
Most are marked intermediate. The Llama purse is the gentlest starting point at $2.99 and confident beginner.
