Coin Purse Free Crochet Pattern. When I’m teaching my 5 week courses, I often get students that finish their projects before others so I have developed a number of small, “mini-projects” to help keep them busy in class! This little purse is one of them!
This pattern is for a simple crocheted purse made in one piece – starting from the bottom up, in a spiral. The flap is then worked flat without breaking off the yarn and includes a button loop. The coin purse can be made with small amounts of Aran, Worsted or Chunky yarns. You could even try holding 2 strands of DK togther or 3 strands of 4ply.

Pattern Format
Pattern is available in British and US crochet terminology and includes 6 pages with photos and mini tutorials for some of the techniques involved and can be downloaded as a pdf. from my Free Small Pattern Directory.

Hi
Sorry for the delay in responding.
Are you downloading it from Ravelry?
I can email the pattern to you – not sure I can help with the printing side of things as so far others haven’t had a problem.
Kind regards,
Mezza
