This is little cabled purse is the perfect size to fit a wallet, cellphone and keys for daytime or evening.

The cable pattern is very simple, making it an ideal pattern for those new to cabling to try out. The purse is made flat and then seamed, with the stockinette sections attaching the handles added afterwards.

There are also instructions to make the simple crochet flower decoration - you will need a few yards of yarn in a contrasting colour, a crochet hook and a button for this. You will also need bag handles - size details are in the pattern.

You could also optionally line the finished bag (instructions not given).
