This early 20th century miniature crochet purse takes its inspiration from one of life’s humblest essentials: the sock. At roughly 5 by 2 inches, it’s wonderfully small, softly sculptural, and surprisingly expressive, with its curved heel, tapered toe, and snug little ankle worked entirely in tight, even crochet.
The color palette keeps things grounded and warm, layered bands of browns that feel practical and cozy, just like the real thing. At the top, a metal kiss-lock frame adds a flash of formality, snapping shut with a satisfying click.
