Santa Hat Purse
There is an adorable Santa Hat crocheted purse on Ravelry. It would be such a cute bag to take to a Christmas party or other holiday event. The problem is - along with not having enough time to add one more project to my list this December - there is no pattern. The pattern is from Quick and Easy Crochet magazine July/August 2006.
The hat part might be straightforward to do since it is most likely made up of single crochet. Just need to increase in rounds until you have the desired size of the purse. I have plenty of fun fur, so making the edge and the top of the hat should not be a problem. I know I have plenty of red yarn to work with, too.
While I ran out of time to crochet one this year, this is one project that I would like to tackle before next Christmas. I figure around February will be a good time to start tackling crafts for next Christmas. Maybe ten months will be enough time to get everything done.
