Crocheted Beret and Bag Pattern from Bleach Bottle

Product Description

Dainty Duo : This pattern contains directions for creating the set shown. This pattern set, vintage 1960's from Coats and Clark's, is a play on crochet and craft. Here we have a very easy beret pattern with a small tassel on the side. It is paired with a bucket style drawstring handbag that is crocheted and then slipped over an emptied (and cleaned of course), bleach bottle ... which makes for a quite sturdy container.
