Eliana Purse
This written PDF pattern has detailed instructions, as well as lots of of images, tutorials, and tips to help you make it. You’ll also get a print-friendly version when you purchase the pattern.
Brief instructions on how to add a fabric lining (with a pocket!) are also included in the pattern.
Difficulty: Intermediate
Materials Needed:
For the Purse:
• DK yarn
• 3.5mm hook
• Scissors
• Stitch markers
• Yarn needle
If You’d Like to Add a Fabric Lining:
• Cotton fabric
• Embroidery thread (optional)
• Fabric marker
• Fusible interfacing (optional)
• Iron
• Pointy object (such as a pencil, pen, or
chopstick; optional)
• Quilting pins
• Ruler
• Sewing machine (optional)
• Sewing needle
• Sewing thread
• Sew-on magnetic snap set (optional)
Size:
A finished square measures 5.25 in. across.
My finished purse measures 14.5 in. wide and 12 in. high (measuring down the center, not including the straps). The purse measures 11 in. from the top of the straps to the top of the bag (measuring down the center). The straps measure 20 in. long.
Depending on your tension, your squares (and purse) may come out bigger or smaller, even if you use the stated yarn and hook size. To adjust the squares’ (and purse’s) size, you can change your tension, yarn weight, and/or hook size.
Yarn:
For my purse, I used the following colors of Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK --
- Color A - Mustard Yellow (2 skeins, 274 yds.)
- Color B - Champagne White (1 skein, 137 yds.)
- Color C - Vintage Pink (2 skeins, 274 yds.)
- Color D - Rich Teal (4 skeins, 548 yds.)
More specific yardage, color, & color placement information can be found at the beginning of the pattern.
Detailed instructions are given for Special Stitches.
This pattern also uses Starting and Standing Stitches in place of chains, with detailed instructions provided.
