Tutorial to Crochet the Bunny Purse for Back-to-School
This adorable crossbody rabbit bag features a soft round pouch body worked in pink yarn starting from a magic ring and expanding with neat single crochet rounds. The top is fitted with a pink flap that extends down over the front opening. White yarn is worked along the flap’s edges in cluster stitches to create a sweet, wavy ruffle border.
Two cute bunny ears – crocheted with a white center and edged in pink – are sewn onto the flap alongside a delicate ribbon bow for added charm.
Completed with a magnetic snap closure and a stylish pearl strap, this finished bag measures approximately 19 cm wide by 14 cm tall, making it a functional and delightful handmade accessory.
