Description Here is a finished watermelon purse, complete with strap.

With the help of family, I decided to go with a longer strap for this purse. I didn't want to go with anything short in fear of having it snatched away. With the longer strap, you can hold it in front of you as you shop.

The pattern for the half circle purse can be found here: [link]

I did so adjustments to the original pattern to follow my watermelon idea.

I had originally planned on having three at my table, but since it's grabbed so much attention already, I'll crochet up some more!

That's so cute! Too bad I can't go to Anime Atlanta. But I've already been to three anime conventions this year: Anime Central (Chicago), Anime-Zing (Bettendorf, Iowa), and Anime Iowa (Coralville, Iowa). I'm all anime'd out!

It's not a huge purse, it's about 5+ inches deep with and 8 inch circumference.

I'm table F5 (my other account is *SmyrnaSketcher ) Don't let the number of purses daunt you, I'll have more available at the table and maybe even make more while I'm there.

Well, there will be turtles, but they will be more "advanced" and look even cuter than the originals.

Yep, that's me!
