I wanted to make something that can be both useful and fun - this little fish is inspired by vintage purses, fairy tales and the colours of autumn, my favourite time of year!

DMC Petra yarn is a pleasure to crochet with - it captures al the crisp details in the stitch patterns and has a soft shimmering finish, just what you need to make a little fish!

(The kiss-lock frame I got is from www.etsy.com/shop/3Dpatternpaper - there’s LOTS to choose from!)

This pattern is in US crochet terms, translated from UK.

Width of purse frame = 25 stitches.
