Sock Monkey Purse or Lunch Bag Crochet Pattern
by Sara Sach of
This Bag measures about 5 X 7 inches, not counting the handle. It's the perfect size for a reusable lunch bag.
I bed if you brought your lunch to work in this bag, not one would steal it!
Sock Monkey. The Vanna's Choice is my first choice,
but the I Love This yarn is a good choice as well.
