The Watermelon Tunisian Bag is worked using Tunisian crochet stitches and an afghan hook. This bag is a great way to practice your Tunisian Crochet stitch work as well as a great way to practice how to change colors in this craft. It's a super cute summertime purse, but it also makes a great play purse for a little girl. I know my daughter took this one over as soon as it was done. It features bright green yarn, coral pink yarn, and little black buttons for seeds.

It's the perfect crocheted bag because it's just the right size to carry your festival essentials including your cell phone, cash, photo ID, and lip gloss. Plus, the fringe adds a funky finishing touch.
Stingray Purse or Pal
This cute crochet stingray is a perfect gift project to make for kids of any age!
From the blogger: "After making the Pocket Full of Sunshine and the Pocket Full of Rainbows purses, my daughter (who quickly took them over) requested a stingray purse. Immediately I thought, 'That's a fun idea!' As soon as I finished the purse base, she wanted to have it. She didn't even want to wait for the handle to be added. After our photo shoot with the purse, she requested I remove the handle. This made me think 'This could easily be a cute stuffed animal too!'
Little Pink Purse
Add a pop of pink to any outfit with the Little Pink Purse. Made by joining together two crocheted granny squares, this easy peasy purse is just the right size to carry all of your must-have items such as keys, cell phone, and some cash. Girls of all ages will love carrying this girly girl purse. A fun, frilly edge and matching strap gives it the perfect finishing touch. Feel free to also add a liner, if desired.
Watermelon Slice Sunglass Pouch
"I created this sunglass pouch as part of a challenge where the theme was Summer. It inspired me to share this fun, easy and quick little crochet pattern perfect for the Summer staple seen everywhere - sunglasses! You'll need a small amount of worsted weight yarn in red, white, black and green. I've used Lily Sugar n Cream for mine, but WeCrochet Dishie and Red Heart Smoothie are great alternatives. I recommend cotton since a sunglass pouch sees a lot of wear and tear in, out and around a bag. The pouch took me just over 30 minutes to work up."
Simply Green Homespun Purse
Simply Green is the name of the Lion Brand Homespun yarn that makes up this lovely purse. It was worked in all half double crochet stitches so it is a quick project to complete. A unique yellow flower is appliqued to the purse at its side to complete its look. Great way to dress up any outfit.
