Crochet Hip Purses (and a Giveaway!)

I recently taught myself to crochet. Several of my friends are knitters and yarn is their "thang". I wanted to join the fun but was not quite ready to step into the knitting pool so I started crocheting. I LOVE it. It has even brought my teen-aged daughter and I closer as now I can join her on the couch while she watches her very favorite, quality, educational programs (16 and Pregnant, The Kardashians, Jersey Shore, oh my...). I sit there and completely tune-out the TV and I crochet away... (Ok, I might peek at the TV a tiny bit, I'm so ashamed!)

These sweet Crochet Hip Purses are a blast to make. The color combos are all different and very vibrant. I've given a few away to friends to get their feedback: Here's what my pal, Jilly-Jill has to say:

- Have it and LOVE it! It's perfect for a small wallet, cell phone and keys. Nice job Nina!!
