This crochet guillotine purse went viral on multiple social media sites last year! I received countless comments asking me for a pattern, so here it is! Make your own killer crochet purse! This pattern is suitable for advanced beginners.

The pattern is a full e-book including dozens of HD photos, schematics, charts, notes, and the pattern itself. As somebody who didn’t learn to crochet with patterns (and can still find them intimidating if I’m being honest) I do my best to show and explain as clearly as I can in addition to the traditional written pattern with abbreviated stitches!

The eBook for this pattern is 41 pages. The last four pages are the print-friendly version of this pattern condensed into black and white and just the pattern instructions without the extra pictures and notes!

Gauge is make as you go.
