Crochet Velvet Frame Purse Pattern

About the Pattern

This frame purse pattern is designed for velvet yarn to produce a compact, plush accessory with a striped body and 3D floral embellishment. The base is worked in an oval, followed by continuous rounds for the body, then seamed onto a metal or plastic frame for a finished, functional piece. Alternating yarn colors create visual interest, while an easy-to-crochet flower adds a feminine touch.

Pattern at a Glance

• Construction: The purse begins with a chain and is worked in rounds for an oval base, then continued in back loop only and closed rounds for the sides. Color changes produce stripes.
• Assembly: The crocheted body is sewn onto a hard-wearing purse frame.
• Embellishment: A crochet flower with clustered petals and a circle center is made separately and attached to one side with glue and secure stitching.

Important Notes

• Velvet yarn is slippery—keep tension firm for well-defined stitches and structural integrity.
• Count stitches at the end of each round, especially immediately after increases, to ensure the correct finished shape.
• When sewing the body to the frame, spacing and symmetry are critical. Use sturdy, non-stretchy thread for attachment.
• To prevent the flower from detaching, secure it both with glue and internal knotting.
• Use a slip stitch and chain to close rounds for neat color transitions in stripes.

Difficulty Level

• Advanced Beginner: This pattern is well-suited to those already comfortable with multiple crochet stitches, working in the round, changing yarn colors, and simple finishing techniques.

Supplies Needed

• Velvet yarn (nhung mèo) in two colors (e.g., brown and green)

• Finished purse dimensions: approximately 8.5 cm wide (fitting the frame), about 7–10 cm tall.

Gauge & Stitch Details

• Gauge: Not strictly required but aim for tight, even stitches so that the finished body fits exactly into the purse frame and the velvet does not gape.
• Stitch count per round: 36 (body).
• Rounds are closed with a slip stitch, then a chain is made before starting the next round to keep stripes crisp.
