    take a look at this cute one. I asked her if it was lined and she said no so she tried not to carry her knitting needles in it. I have this on my blog also, 4th picture down [http://www.quiltwalktalk.blogspot.com]

    when I was a teen (LONG time ago) we used to crochet purses out of twine. I guess it was cool back then.

    Yes I have crochet a purse. I made it for my granddaughter just big enough to put a cell phone, a change purse and a couple of small items when she goes to the school events.

    I also macramed one, which came out very elegant.

    That bag looks like it was made out of the store bags. I made a huge bag out of that to hold newspapers for my cat litter box.

    I made a small crochet bag out of the very thin crochet yarn for my daughter in law to carry for her wedding
