A purse always takes priority. Even when one has 14,000 other projects in the making.
,

.
So, what should fall into my lap? ---> the May/June 10 issue of CROCHET today! and whew! the sheer pleasure of paging through this magazine can alone send me into a complete crochet tailspin.
.
For me, that is half of the fun ---> seeing every delicious project just sets me on fire.
.
And yes, purses have made my list of top 5 things e.v.e.r. --- so there was no way I could pass up the May Flowers Tote.
.
Using this gorgeous turquoise yarn and a size I hook, I began the easy pattern of a row of sc dc. And then a row of sc. That's it!
.
.
.
I want the sturdiness of being able to chock just about everything into this bag, so I chose a complimenting fabric to use as the liner.
.
And I will crochet some flowers to embellish when attaching the handles.
