Hi Roxanne,

I guess you are not familiar with the term "crocheting through front or back loop only".
You can refer to below page. It shows how to crochet only through front or back loop in detailed pictures.

Love the purse! but, as a starting crochet-lover I don't really understand these steps:
"ch3, 6 dc only through the front loop of the first hdc of previous row, *7dc only through the front loop of the next hdc of previous row*"
can you maybe explain more in detail? 'cause the way I did it, was not right I think...

thanks!

Hello all,

I just found out that I need to moderated the comments to see them on my blog, after all this time! Silly me!

I see many people asking me where I got the purse frame. I bought my coin purse frame when I was visiting Korea.

However, (don't despair!:D)I saw many American craft stores carries them too. I actually some Hobby Lobby and Michael's carrying them, but not all the stores..
If you want to order them online, google "metal purse frames" then you will see many options.
One of the online store I know is "www.umei.com". They carry tons of different kinds. I haven't ordered from them yet,so I have no idea how their customer service is like.
I hope it helped. :)

Where did you find the small metal clasp part of the coin purse? I've looked at places like hobby lobby but couldnt find it. I'm dying to make this but have no idea where to get the metal part.

I've always wanted to make this, and I finally started... sadly I ran out of yarn very early (I only had a bit, but desperately wanted to start), hopefully I'll get more yarn soon.
Your instructions are far easier than I thought once I put my mind to it... Thank you for a lovely pattern...
