Description:
The Montauk Handbag is quite versatile for the everyday gal who doesn't have time to change bags daily. Throw some sun tan lotion, sunglasses, and a towel in and head off to the beach. Use it at the Farmer's Market to buy fresh produce as this bag can handle a lot of weight! Or pair it with your favorite sundress for brunch with friends.

Skill Level:
This crochet handbag pattern is listed at an intermediate skill level and is created using traditional crochet techniques. Buyer needs to have an understanding of single crochet, half double crochet, and double crochet stitches to create this bag. Linked stitches and short rows are used, but explained through step-by-step photo guides. Any additional sewing directions or finishing techniques are demonstrated with pictures, diagrams, and illustrations as well.

Directions are given in both step-by step and easy printing format. Choose which way works best for you. Links to free crochet video tutorials are imbedded in the pattern! Additionally, since gauge isn't crucial, this bag can be created using any heavy worsted weight yarn for a different effect, so feel free to experiment.
