Aran Purse
About the Design:
I designed this purse to replicate the shape of a small black leather purse I have used regularly for several years. It has simple lines, with shaped side panels.
The bottom of the bag and the strap is in a tight single crochet for strength, and in a darker, coordinating color, for practical purposes!
