Hi friends, As promised, I'm here with the pattern for the change purse. Please note that this pattern was provided to me by Patons, so if you have any questions, it's best to contact them (believe me, you don't want my advice when it comes to crochet!). I'll be adding a photo of the finished purse later today so that you know what you're getting into. Have fun! Crochet Change Purse MEASUREMENTS Approx 5.25 ins [13 cm] wide x 3.5ins [9 cm] high.
