Grab your Tunisian crochet hook and get started on this simple one stitch purse because crochet bags are a must when planning your summer wardrobe.

Tunisian crochet in the round may seem daunting but our Sophie bag makes the first steps easier. Then elevate your Sophie Tunisian crochet bag with embroidery to add a pop of color and a little bit of flair. Simple daisies have been added to the front of our bag, but try out any style of embroidery to make this bag truly your own. You won’t be able to make just one.

A crochet bag worked in Tunisian Knit Stitches creates a sturdy yet stunning tote. The sturdy base is worked in single crochet. Body and handles are worked bottom up in seamless Tunisian Knit Stitch rounds. The floral embroidery is added in at the end for a pop of color and texture.
