Crochet an Easy Chunky Cabled Purse

Just because the weather is warm doesn't mean the crochet has to stop! Shift your focus from crochet sweater patterns and thick cowls to cute accessories you can carry, like this cabled purse. Yarn crafts are great to take with you to your favorite summer movie, on a family road trip or to the summer lake weekend. The crochet pattern from Etsy will show you how to knit the handbag, which you can attach to bamboo handles for a sweet, beach-ready look. Choose a light-colored yarn like ivory or a bright pop of color to coordinate with your favorite summer dress.
