Instagram Purse
"I celebrated my insta-birthday back in June by publishing this awesome and adorable pattern on my blog. when I started on Instagram, they were still using the old logo. I think the old logo have that hipster-ish/ nastolgic feel to it which is why I still prefer it over the new one. I had made 3 variations of the purse before I finally decided on this one that I love! I hate sewing the final pieces together, but the only parts that require sewing for this project is the lens. The knitted look of the body of the bag is created using half double crochets in the third loop. I hope you love the purse as much as I do!"

This is what I call a creative design. Being able to take something that really exists and put it into crochet is awesome. I am not an instagram subscriber but this cute purse is making me consider being a member.

The picture here on this page does not give the design the props it deserves. It is a good size purse but you would not know it from this picture. For those of you that are instagram followers, you will love to add this to your purse stash.

What?! OMG this is so cute! Too many cute patterns that I am finding here today. This is really a craft because it is not just crochet. You hot glue things on there, too. And those things are cut from felt. You will also need jump rings and a purse strap. This should be a fun one. And also EASY, too!

What a cute idea for teens! This is such a simple pattern, too, since its just an open bag with no additional closures. The only changes I would make is to replace the felt pieces with crocheted ones instead. Since the bag is as large as it is, this shouldnt be a problem. Great instructions and photos, too! Thanks for finding this cute project.

When a pattern gives you a nostalgia feel, it is worth trying. This pattern is so cute. What a novelty it would be to use this as a cross body bag with a casual outfit. Im always looking for patterns like that. I think this would get people saying to you, how cute your purse!
