This is so cute that I can't pass it up. I have my own site where I sell different crochet items but it's mainly for purses. This one will be joining that soon. But I think it needs a big black button to set it off. It doesn't have to be used as a closure, just to pop the colors.

Love the look of this Tunisian crochet bag! I recently learned Tunisian crochet and absolutely love it! The basket weave pattern gives this bag an interesting design with a little bit of texture. The stitches are basic and easy to do. I particularly like the idea that Tunisian crochet makes a thick enough fabric so that you do not need to make a lining for this bag! I had not thought of that before. This pattern is going on my to do list!
