Hello there! How are you doing? With this simple and fun pattern you will be able to create your own crochet felted wool purse. It’s suitable for beginners, thanks to the step-by-step photo guide and straightforward design. You can pick so many fun colours to work with and make your bag unique and stylish. Sounds good? Lets get to work :)

You will need:

  • 6 skeins of Drops Snow ( or any Super Chunky 100% Wool yarn) - I used 280 grams, which is about 280 meters/306 yards,
  • a 9 mm (M/N-13) crochet hook,
  • 2 stitch markers,
  • a tapestry needle,
  • scissors
  • a washing machine - for machine felting. You may also try hand felting, but that might give different results

GAUGE

10 st x 7 rows = 13 cm x 11.5 cm

Because I worked with scrap yarn, I used 10 colours in total
(instead of 6, if you have new skeins). The colours I used were Drops Snow 07, 24, 106, 03, 86, 36, 10, 85, 101 and 89. You can find these shade numbers and the corresponding colours in most yarn shops.

The pattern includes written instructions, photos and visual aids to help you create your own felted piece. It’s suitable for begginers and intermediate crocheters. If you have any questions or experience any difficulties, feel free to message me here or on Instagram (@le_szydelko). Enjoy :)
