This free crochet along features the Purple Passion Project Purse. It is a free crochet pattern that will be available in parts so we can crochet along together. This Crochet Along is now finished. But all parts for the pattern will stay for free available. Please click the links for the parts on the bottom of this page.

When I recently asked what my followers would like to see next as a crochet along it a very strong vote for a bag. Well, as always your wish is my command and I went right to it.

Luckily, I realized I really wanted to make a crochet project bag using one skein of Caron Big Cakes. It worked out perfectly as I used almost all of it.

Which means for this crochet along, also known as CAL, you will simply need one skein of any color combination of a Caron Big Cake and a 5mm hook.

Be sure to use the hashtag #PurplePassionProjectPurseCAL on social media, so I can follow along on your journey to create this awesome bag.

There are a few other materials you will need, but these are the basics. I have listed the rest below.

If you add this pattern to you Ravelry Favorites and share it on social media as a link, I will be able to share a lot more free crochet patterns for you all.

Furthermore, I you will need to know 3 different types of stitch patterns that are featured on this Purple Passion Project Purse. The great thing is, I will break up the pattern such that you will be working on one stitch pattern at the time.

First, we will be making the rectangular bottom of the purse which features the thermal stitch to provide a great amount of stability.

Next, we will work on the main bottom of the bag which has a beautiful textured due to the Tri Square stitch pattern.

And lastly, we will be finishing the bag using the Linked Treble Crochet stitch on the edge and handle of the bag. Finally, we are adding some buttons and then show off our beautiful crochet project bags to everyone.

I showed off this stunning Purple Passion Project Purse on my recent Facebook Live event and everyone seemed to love it. I even shared a sneak peak on Instagram and people went crazy for it.

Well, now it is finally the time to go to your local yarn store, unless you already have everything you need, and get a Caron Big Cake.

You will have 1.5 weeks to get all your items together. We will start on March 10th when the first part will be released. You will then have one week to finish part 1 before part 2 will be released. The same then goes for part 2 for part 3. Update: The Crochet Along is now finished and all parts are available for free by clicking the links to the parts below.

Furthermore, please join my Facebook Crochet Group so you can share your progress pictures with us and also get feedback or answers to questions you may have about this project or other ones in the future.

However, if you do not want to wait for all the parts to be released you can easily purchase the pdf for this pattern with all the parts included in one file.

In addition, I created a downloadable pdf for you all, that has all the pictures as references added to the back of the pattern. So you can choose whether you want to print them or not. That can save you a lot of ink in the long run.
