Sew the Big Circles together with the Ears by sewing in and out of the sc, when you get to the ears, leave 5 sc unworked toward the center and 9 sc across (the opening of the purse) and the other side, leave 5 sc unworked going up the other ear.

Take Yarn over the middle of the bow at least 10 times and fasten off. Sew the bow on top of the purse between the ears.

Strap:
H hook
Chain 75, hdc in the 3rd chain from the hook and each chain across, sl st. Attach the Strap inside the ear opening on both sides.

This is awesome! Just what I needed for my Minnie loving granddaughter. I'm working on my 3rd ear right now, but thought I would share a couple of parts in the pattern that I was confused about. Maybe it's just me...

Purse rd. 5: "dc in the 2 next two DC" ? Should be DC in the next two DC?

Rd. 6 says same thing.

Ears:"Work 10 hdc in the Magic Circle, slip stitch-10 dc." I did all DC, no HDC?

Thanks for sharing the pattern!

Would you say this is an easy pattern for a beginner? Approximately how long does it take to make?

amyscrochetpatterns said...

If you watch the video then that will make it easier. Its pretty easy if you know how to make flat cirlces. I think about an hour or so.

Thank you for the pattern and the video tutorial! Great work. I am going to use your pattern to make a tooth fairy pillow by starting with a smaller hook, closing it all the way around and attaching a small pocket on the back.

I didnt show that in this pattern, I would cut out a lining that fits and sew it in.
