Crochet Watermelon Coin Purse | Yarn Scrap Friday 🍉

It's all about my fruity little bags this week! I had so much fun reading your comments and votes on RUclips and Instagram asking which coin purse you'd prefer a tutorial on, thank you so much everyone! It was pretty close, but watermelon just had the edge 🍉 I love designing these fruity themed little bags. I'm tempted to add a strawberry and an apple to the lemon and watermelon collection so far, what do you think?
Suggested Materials
- 3mm crochet hook or similar
- Sport/Baby weight yarn in pink, white, green and back (yarn weight of 2)
- Yarn needle and scissors
Every Friday I will be releasing a quick and fun crochet project for you to help use up all those left over yarn scraps. I hope you enjoy and feel inspired. If you have ideas for future Yarn Scrap Friday tutorials then do let me know in the comments below!
A huge thank you to my Membership Plus supporters for making this possible.

Thank you Laura, lovely little pattern and very well explained and easy to follow 😊

[@theodosialowe5982]

Love this I made it and my friends and family were impressed. Please do a tutorial on the lemon 🍋 purse

[@tamdobson3079]

Yes to apple and strawberry bags! So much fun to make!

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

It has to happen 😄👍🍓🍏

[@YvonneWilson312]

This is so cute! Thank you Laura! I love the idea of a series of these. Maybe an orange as well.... a veritable fruit basket! They have so many uses. Great for fiddle toys, which many of us utilise to combat anxiety and stress.

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Ooh an orange is such a cute idea too! ☺️🍊

[@debralucca7527]

Sooooo cute! You are a great teacher Laura. Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing. Love your channel. They say we learn something new every day. Today I kearned 2 new things, the knots & changing colors easier. Thank you. ❤️

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

That's wonderful! I'm so glad to introduce new techniques within a pattern. Thank you 😊

[@tamdobson3079]

Wow never made a foundation chain, how cool . Excellent tutorial.

[@jeannedelaforet6441]

I like the size! Its perfect for Rosary beads, tissues, and your veil if you’re Roman Catholic, and any other sacred or special little items for others. My students would probably use it for their earbuds and charger. Thanks so much!

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Beautiful suggestions ☺️🙏

[@newmove7068]

Lovely... Simply lovely and I can really use this because I still go to the laundromat and this is perfect to hold my quarters instead of a sandwich bag... I going to get on this straight away. Thank you for the generous step by step video 😍😘✨ & looking forward to the apple one(for fall or maybe an acorn one too) thank you so much crochet friend💗🙏🏾

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Ooh acorn! Great suggestion thank you ☺️ and what a great use for your coin bag! Love it

[@Guttergirl61]

You explain everything very slowly, and it’s so easy to follow!
Could you make a video of the lemon?

[@valeriehowden471]

This would also be great for a jewelery travel bag. Will enjoy gifting these to friends.

The other bag would probably be the exact same pattern you would just have to figure out how to crochet the leaf to put on it.
