I am not patient enough to do the larger projects such as afghans. My issue is I start them and then they get pushed aside and I don't seem to finish them. The only larger project I seem to be able to complete are the crochet rugs. The stitch is so large they seem to be fast and easy to me.
I had a friend inquire, are you going to make an afghan with the spiral granny square I made and yes, it would be nice, but it would never get done. I thought to myself, what am I going to do with this piece. It is not exactly a recycle craft. Then it dawned on me that I could use it in combination with my creations.
I decided that I will do a little freeform crochet and create a purse and the main focal point would be the spiral granny square.
You all have them, I know I do, the one offs on the place mats. Usually one buys these in sets and one wears out faster, one gets lost, you know where I am going with this.
This is a great opportunity for me to use that place mat and design a freeform crochet purse and practice different stitches, use up some buttons that I have made from old clothing, and make buttons with the water bottle caps to use as the closure.
It is freeform, no rules, just your hook and imagination.
Have a lovely week and here is the starting of my freeform crochet purse.
