For the intermediate or advanced crocheters out there, this Crochet Crossbody Pattern from VivmadeCrochet will help you to make a small crochet purse to put your essentials and valuables in. 

To follow this pattern, you’ll need 3mm thick cotton or macrame cord, crochet hooks in sizes 3 and 4 mm, a tapestry needle, a regular sewing needle, a button measuring 20 mm and, optionally, a leather tag. 

The finished bag will measure 20 x 15 x 4 cm and instructions are 8 pages long, including pictures representing each step of the process.

AhookA Pineapple Bag Crochet Pattern 

An orange, red, and yellow pineapple style crochet bag with a green banding on top and an orange and green strap behind it.

This is a really fun crochet purse pattern from AhookA. If you’ve ever wanted a purse shaped like a pineapple, this is the pattern for you!

Written instructions to create this purse are accompanied by color pictures, formatted in an instantly downloadable PDF. 

The bag, when completed, will be large enough to store essentials such as a notebook, wallet, keys, and phone. 

This isn’t the easiest purse crochet pattern in the world, especially for beginners, but the instructions are clear enough to help you avoid any confusion.

OutstandingCrochet Embossed Crochet Bag Pattern

Beige crochet bag with leaves stitched from the top to bottom with a thick band across the top and a strap draped over it.

 

This Embossed Crochet Bag Pattern by OutstandingCrochet is certainly outstanding!

Readers should be aware that this is an intermediate-level crochet project, although there are other more beginner-friendly crochet purses linked below. 

When you purchase this pattern, you’ll receive written instructions as well as video and picture tutorials to follow. If you want to include a lining inside the purse, there are instructions for that, too. 

You’ll need quite a few materials to complete this project, including soft DK weight yarn (9 430 gram skeins), sewing and tapestry needles, metal rings, and magnetic clasps. It’s also helpful to have a sewing machine for the lining, but this is optional.

NorthernLightsTrail Crochet Purse Pattern

Pale green crochet purse with a flap over the front to fasten it and a thin strap on the left side.

NorthernLightsTrail’s Crochet Purse Pattern is definitely one of our top choices because it looks so high-quality and can be worn to just about any event or outing. It is quite small, though, so it’s mainly for carrying the essentials. 

Instructions for all the relevant stitches are provided, accompanied by 64 photographs across a 23-page PDF. You’ll also be able to access video tutorials via the seller’s Youtube channel. 

Materials and tools needed include a 6 mm (J) crochet hook, 3 mm polyester cord yarn, a clasp (if desired), a needle, and a chain or something similar for the strap.

Nattochka Crochet Bag Pattern

A beige crochet bag with a large flower print running along the bottom, some beads dangling from the right side, and a thick strap at the top.

Now, if you’re looking for a slightly larger, tote-style bag for the Summer, this pattern by Nattochka will help you to create one. 

This is a bestselling purse pattern on Etsy, partly because the 50-page instructions are so detailed and comprehensive for intermediate and advanced crocheters.

The finished purse is roughly square (13.78 x 13.78 inches), and the pattern includes instructions for the decorative embellishments such as beads. With the help of this pattern, your new tote bag will be the envy of your friends and family!

I adore these beautiful coin purses. And they come in so handy given that I don’t use coins too much, but I still need some for emergencies! LOL!

DarlingJadore Backpack Purse Crochet Pattern

Light green crochet backpack with a flap over the top, two small tassels on the left side, and a large tassel on the right side.

This pattern is from DarlingJadore, and it can be used to make a crochet backpack purse. 

The purse itself is very stylish, with a large tassel on the side, 2 smaller tassels on the front, and a metal clasp to keep it shut. Nobody would ever know the difference between this handmade purse and one you picked up at the store!

Additionally, this pattern is suitable for advanced beginners, so you don’t need a lot of experience. A stitch glossary is provided in case you’re not familiar with any terminology, and photographs and videos come with the written instructions for clarity. 

The recommended hooks are sizes K and G, and a bulky weight yarn is ideal.

TheEasyDesign has, indeed, created an easy design for a beautiful tote bag in this Rome Urban Bag Pattern. 

This pattern is beginner-friendly, and if you follow the directions as they’re laid out, you’ll end up with a large tote bag that’s suitable for beach trips, or just carrying everything you need on a daily basis. 

You’ll need up to 300 yards of very thick yarn and an equally large hook, but other than that, all you need is yourself and the instructions! Crocheting your own purse has never been so simple!

MaxieACraftStore Mermaid Scale Crochet Bag Pattern

A small blue crochet bag with a mermaid fin pattern all over and a thin pink trim at the top with a pink strap.

MaxieACraftStore’s Mermaid Scale Crochet Bag Pattern is the perfect mermaid-style accessory for Summer, although if you play around with the colors, it can also look like crocodile scales!

You will need soft, light weight yarn, a 3.75 mm crochet hook, needles, thread, stitch markers, rings, and a buckle. If you want lining, you’ll need material for this, too. 

One of the best things about this purse pattern is that proceeds from each sale (50%) go to the Best Friend Animal Society, so you get to exercise your creativity, practice a skill, make a gorgeous purse, and all for a good cause!

SashisStitches Moving Forward Crossbody Bag Crochet Pattern

A green crochet shoulder bag with two thick cream stripes across the middle, a white button to close, and a long green strap.

And finally, the Moving Forward Crossbody Bag Crochet Pattern from SashisStitches is a versatile project that you can create in your favorite colors for an eye-catching and practical accessory. 

This striped purse is neither too big nor too small, so it’s suited to many purposes, and it can even be adapted to be one block color if you prefer. Additionally, you can choose to fasten it with your preference of button or closure system.

This is a beginner-friendly crochet purse pattern that only requires a 4.5 mm hook and yarn of your desired texture in size 4.

Final Thoughts 

Whatever your personal preference in terms of purse style, there should be something that meets your needs listed above. If anything isn’t quite to your liking, a lot of the patterns are highly versatile and can easily be adapted to create your perfect purse! 

Remember, the dimensions of a purse are key to its functionality, so if you want your finished project to match the description exactly, it’s important to use the type or yarn and hook recommended by the seller. Alternatively, mix things up and put your own spin on the pattern!
