Vintage Crochet Bag and Purse Patterns
Crochet Your Own Bags and Purses From Vintage Patterns
I
t's easy to make your own unique designer bag or purse from vintage crochet patterns. Why vintage? Because there's more variety and better quality when you reach back into the 1930s through the 1950s for your crochet patterns. You get better patterns at a lower cost. Modern crochet patterns aren't as detailed, and are usually just reworks of the old patterns anyway.

Would you carry a hand-crocheted bag?
Yes, and I do.
So far, I made 2 purses for me, and one for my granddaughter. I picked up my pattern for free on line from Lion Brand Yarn for the one I carry every day. I made up a pattern for the other two. I like the idea of a vinage pattern.
I will look into it when I get ready to make my next purse.
Oops, I mean't "Oram"!
Most certainly and now that I've found Ms. Orem, it's on and poppin'

Absolutely, i love chochet
Hey - Designer Bags, knit and felted bags is my bag. Love this lens. You are so full of cool information. You've really encouraged me.
I told my husband last week that I needed a new handbag. He asked why I didn't crochet one like the one I made right after we married. LOL. Maybe I will, since I really like the Free Motif bag. Thanks!
Great designs, I love crotchet!
Absolutely! I'd also wear a crocheted sunhat too.
You gave me an idea of a crocheted bag to make for summertime! Thanks for sharing, now I just have to find the pattern ;)
You bet! I love the vintage looks! Your lens is encouraging me to get out the crochet hook. I like the variety of styles you've got on here. And thank you for the free patterns!
