Round About the Bag - Handbag Pattern

So during the christmas holidays, I played around with some handbag designs, after I was gifted some Elle Cotton Yarn for christmas, this roundabout bag, ended up to be so fun to make, and the texture of the finished material , lends itself to not only a beatulfy accessory, but a strong quality carry with bag.

Round About the Bag - Handbag Crochet Pattern, took about a month worth of crochet, on and off between the holiday festivities, Flower design worked in the round, gives you the optio to use a thicker yarn, which will obviously give you a slightly bigger bag.
Best to use stiff cotton yarn, guidelines are given for bag assembly, but this pattern does not include a full on tutorial, so some common sense is needed, hen getting the the bag assembly.
