Look at this really cute purse Cyndi made! She crocheted it in 3 days. I love the use of the chain and clasp. And if you look closely you will notice she ran some blue yarn through the chain. And as always she just made up the pattern with her fabulous skills. The usage of the chain and clasp was inspired by a Berroco website. I think she said she only spent $3 on the chain and clasp. Cyndi creates her designs by first drawing what she wants the finished project to look like (she has a little book) and then estimates how many to cast-on etc. Isn't that fun? Also, notice my Frida in the picture. She is checking out the purse for quality.
