1st!🤣🧶

[@mjgobet5601]

I collect and repair antique purses. All beaded, loomed, crocheted, embroidered, leather and metal ones. I am also a Bead artist. When you have a bead on your string that is mis-shapened all you need to do is take a pair of pliers and smash the bead, that breaks off and you keep crocheting. Also, they would have used silk purse twist, which acts very different from cotton crochet thread. Your difficulties are more often due to the cotton thread. You made a very nice finished product. And for those that think this would never work in modern day, you are right. There was not a need to carry ID, large car key fobs, pen & paper, cell phones or even a large amount of money or credit cards. So a small purse is perfect. now a project bag is a different animal and does need to be larger. There were also shopping bags (think our reusable shopping bags) that were often crocheted or fabric in construction.

[@sarahb2004]

This was fun to read! Thanks for sharing your expertise!

[@olinelvgreen2062]

now im curious on how the shopping bags looked!

[@chesneymigl4538]

Ah! But they didn't need big purses when they went around carrying big pockets. :) Where do you find silk in purse twist?

[@Lizthinksaloud]

You might have forgotten, in the UK what we call a purse is for holding money and generally kept in a handbag (what you call a purse). You did a great job with the pattern and so much more patient than me with beadwork. I tried it once, and I had the beads on the coffee table, the dog wagged her tail at the door knocking, three months later I'm still finding beads 😅😅😅

[@Doodlecream]

Exactly the reason bead work isn’t for me lol! I’m too clumsy even without a dog 😂😂😂

[@joannburke7239]

When I get beads stuck I’ll use plyers or hammer very lightly smash them. Sometimes cuts thread so you have to be careful. Maybe put towel between

[@tanyasnyder9033]

Yeah! I usually use my jewelry pliers and break the bead. You have to make sure to not use so much force so you don't break your thread

[@the69snark]

I was screaming "THEY'RE GLASS! JUST BREAK THEM!" LOL

[@paulaperalta1698]

I do the same just break the bead off with small pliers.

[@ansia4322]

This! Sometimes if they're not bad you can force them apart with your fingernails, otherwise yeah, crush gently with some pliers.

[@CynthiaHitchcock-x8e]

It looks just fine to me!❤

[@bnhietala]

Heck YES I can see someone holding up a supermarket line so they can tie their Victorian coin purse closed! And I'd hope to be the person right behind them so I can say, "Oh my goodness, that is so cute. Did you make that yourself?!"

[@sidmelucci3675]

These beaded crochet projects are just so elegant. I do hope you will be doing more of them.

[@Nanners-z7v]

My mother would say “ you wouldn’t notice it on a galloping horse”

[@bonnieperkins1419]

Mine said "you won't think of it on your wedding day"

[@lorainenatalino5534]

Yup…but in my house it was my dad…”a man on a galloping horse will never notice”…thanks for the reminder…sigh

[@lynngardner4845]

My grandmother called it a fly on a galloping horse. Lol

[@anachronisticblather296]

I just love that!

[@mariankay6482]

Very pretty "little" long bag. Can I recommend you going to Elena Rugel Crochet. She does a lot of bead work in her patterns and you can watch her to see how to make that 1st wrap with the bead like it said to in the pattern. I think it will make more sense to you after you watch her for just a few minutes. There's nothing "wrong" with what you did and you made it work "Corrinna style" but it might not work well for you in another project doing it the way you did. I'm not griping at you!!! You are amazing and I love ya like a little crochet daughter. I hope you have "known me" long enough to know that but wanted to make it clear for anyone else reading this, too. ❤️🧶😅

[@daricetaylor737]

Corinna, in the future if you have one bead that is unusable, take a pair or pliers and crush the bead. They break really easy!

[@leereadman9069]

beautiful music thankyou and beautiful purse

[@melodied4314]

I've never crocheted with beads and -- in all honesty -- i probably never will. But this was very pretty and dainty.

[@Jendarhan64]

I love beaded work, it's just beautiful! I'm so glad you shared this, I was so excited when I saw the title of the video. 😍 PS that is the cutest lil coin purse ever!!!

[@froggyjen9791]

My goodness that is SO cute! Beautiful work!

[@cindywalker1769]

I’m so glad you went back to putting your music back in your vintage videos. It just makes it so much more back in that time. So thank you again 😄❤️🫶✌️

[@justvintagecrochet]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@erikagholston6610]

I do enjoy the soothing music.

[@lizbrennan847]

Gorgeous, so cute

[@docinparadise]

I have a matching vintage dress and bag beaded this way. It is gorgeous but HEAVY!

[@raquelt1235]

Oh Corina, what a cute coin purse! The ladies of that era would have been so jealous! As always, you did a wonderful job…😊

[@audreydeneui192]

Love it!!!! I especially liked that the pattern used beading with double crochet stitches. The patterns I've used and seen have used single crochets. One problem with the coin purse, especially if left unlined, is that coins and bills are shockingly dirty (actual physical dirt, oils, etc.). So you either have to wash the purse (hand wash, use detergent), or launder the money (ha!).

[@pattyedwards8218]

Such delicate work! Beautiful ❤️

[@alisonmary1443]

Can't tell you how much I enjoyed the video. I'm in Scotland UK and learnt to crochet from an American KZbin channel so when trying an old (uk) pattern I worked keeping American translation not knowing we were different. I still crotchet American because it makes sense to me. The purse is beautiful and the tutorial was so well done, I must add some beads now exciting stuff. Thank you so much and one other thing, your choice of music is the best. What a gem of a channel 💖

[@kouyate24]

I'm with u there. I'm in England and US terms just makes more sense! I mean single means one so in UK terms why is a single crochet a double, its just mad lol! 😂

[@becky8571]

The filet row would be pretty with a ribbon woven through. Very pretty pattern!

[@margaretdevries8090]

I have watched several of these, she does wonderful work but nothing I’d care to make! Cute but too much work ! Glad she likes it 💕

[@LadyValkyri]

Super cute, C! Love it, love you. I hope you have an excellent day friend. Hugs (Oh, I finally went to the eye doctor when I couldn't hold my arms out long enough anymore! 🤣)

[@adriennehoteling2302]

It's beautiful! I maybe wouldn't bother putting cash in there, but it makes wonderful inspiration for some gorgeous, reusable Christmas/event gift card holders ❤❤😊

[@josequins9099]

Oh, that is so cute!!

[@carolday3381]

That pattern at first I thought would make an awesome sleeve cuff embellishment to see on the ends of a 3/4 sleeve or on a business blouse.

[@lauriivey7801]

I'd use it as the FRONT of the bag, and then make the opposite side something that's tightly crocheted ... it's a gorgeous little piece

[@cherylhay8418]

Oh my goodness! What a cute little coin purse! beautiful! I love watching u crochet to see what the mystery crochet is going to be. Keep the videos coming.

[@lisamr40]

I just ordered some thread and beading needles (already have the beads) because I was thinking of doing some beading crochet. I had no idea what to make and then your video popped up. Thanks for sharing this project. I think I am going to try it!

[@collettecouse573]

That is adorable 🥰

[@carollynnpuissant2503]

That would make a great sachet!

[@Faithhopelove1702]

It's super cute. Beautiful christmas gift idea for my sisters. Maybe a bit early to think about that 😄

[@schooliv8726]

Love your work 💖 and love your NAILS 💅

[@justvintagecrochet]

Thank you so much!!

[@robinanderson724]

Love the pattern and as always you are a wonderful teacher. I want to say too that I love the background music because it’s calming.

[@LestWeForget11Nov]

Classiest moneybag ever! Love it!

[@darrinmckeehan5697]

That's really pretty 🤩. N easy enough to remember how to make a long purse 👜. Or make a plain (no filets) back to attach 🤔🙃. Possibilities are endless 😊

[@jmolvera8337]

Very cute! ❤

[@bexn5817]

What an adorable little purse, Corrina!

[@EKA201-j7f]

I love to put beads on my scarves, not a lot, just a twinkle every now and then.

[@judyoliveira3232]

So cute!

[@babycthulhudreams]

i just finished making a beautiful dice bag for my fiance, thank you for this series! these make beautiful gifts. i accidentally bought size 10 thread instead of 20 and it was very frustrating XD

[@tracycaldwell7679]

The colors are set for the times.i like it 😊

[@mgdrew3044]

By long purse they are probably referring to whats often called a "miser's purse" which is a long thin sausage shape bag with the opening in the middle and a pair of rings around, which are important as closures and tassels at each end, both rings and tassels being mentioned in the pattern. Engineering knits knitted a miser's purse and demonstrated its rather interesting method of working 😊

[@kemberelyhamm880]

Beautiful

[@meriwitmer3356]

I had never crocheted with beads till I watched you do it. Love your content!!

[@yvonnepiperata5995]

I love it! I have to make this!

[@cindywalker1769]

Corinna, the next time you do a beaded video, can you please show us how to go about adding or lessening beads. I started the last beaded purse & I’m stuck with that pattern. Thank you for all you do. You’re so sweet & awesome. ✌️🫶

[@roxann_bam]

Yes, please. This is my problem.

[@justvintagecrochet]

I have a video on here of a Fluer De Lis beaded bad and I show how to string the beads in that video

[@cindywalker1769]

That’s the pattern I’m stuck on, I guess I meant when you need more beads in the middle of the pattern. I did watch you do it at the beginning, and I did that, but I ran out of beads & I’m stuck in the middle of the pattern because I don’t know how to add the beads. Thank you so much for responding to my text Corinna.

[@katfisher2668]

Usually to add more beads you cut the thread (end of the row/round is easiest) add beads to new thread and start your next row/round, just like if you were changing colors or starting a new ball of yarn

[@cindywalker1769]

@@katfisher2668 thank you so much.

[@AalyLee]

You can use a cuticle nipper or something to cut them apart..

[@jostrad]

Omg I love this so much. ❤❤

[@moonbasket]

Everything you make is magical and it's so hard to learn and try new things directly on camera. You are doing great.

[@MrsCraftyChris]

Gorgeous purse. Just a tip from a beader, if I needed to break a bead, I would get a push pin (from the noticeboard) and an eraser. You put the eraser under your work and gently push the pin into the bead and the eraser at the same time. This saves your thread from breaking.

[@miketa87]

What a cute beaded item!

[@snospmoht3252]

You could also crochet a round cord with gold thread to close it with and add tiny gold tassels to the ends of that cord. Such a sweet pattern and the double stacked beads just make the look without complicating the pattern. Nicely done girl!

[@kittykatfarm]

Love ❤️ it!

[@oldmomma56]

Wow! I have a lot more appreciation for my grandmothers beaded bags!!

[@janettaylor9058]

Look cute on the christmas tree with chocolate coins or sweets in .

[@erikagholston6610]

Good idea.

[@kriskriskris32]

So very adorable! I love it!😊❤

[@patricialittle2406]

I've seen from 1846-1856, patterns and drawings of Victorian long purses, misers purses and mourning purses, they would explain the gold rings and tassels. Beading one of them would be extremely time consuming as they look to be 18-24 inches long.

[@jackiturner9228]

I saw in the title it said purse thread, is that a hint as to what it’s suppose to be? And it said 4 spools so is that suppose to be the size until you’re out of thread? It’s so cute 🥰

[@tpeschke6074]

Ok. They music around the 17 minute and 27 minute marks was beautiful and papered so beautifully with the beaded crochet. That might sound weird, but that’s what it made me think.

[@SawsanZoughaib-xs2fo]

Very cute just like you

[@TLsMKnCCorner]

Those seed beads are glass. They can be broken so you would not have to cut your work. Just for future reference 😊

[@Chifaire]

It's such a cute little purse. I probably would have made many more rows and folded it on the horisontal instead of the vertical, just to make it bigger. Run a ribbon through the top row of open work

[@hellonadilahere9302]

This is beautiful! I got some beads to try to bead crochet after i watched your last beaded purse. I havent tried it yet, but its good to know it can be done with dc too!

[@stephenie44]

I’ve never seen beading with crochet. That stitch combo is really! Cute!

[@msullivan3531]

I’d add a few more rows to the top so you get a little ruffle.

[@brendacarter1574]

Love all the patterns 😊

[@CyndiWho]

(Also loved your size, it’s adorable!)

[@Bikergirl_40]

that hook is so tiny. I have some of those but I struggle holding them so usually stick to any patterns that are 4mm hook or higher 😝😝

[@Donna2177]

The long beaded purse would make a nice phone purse. This little one is cute.

[@erikagholston6610]

Great idea.

[@hiwakoo]

It would also have made an adorable choker or bracelet, bevore you turned it into the purse.

[@stargazer4508]

My husband's mother used to spend the 1st day 'beading' her tiny black silk crochet thread. They didn't even start the pattern until they had a 5 gallon bucket full. She made some of the most beautiful jewelry ever worn. I never had the chance for her to show me. And she made bead bags as well. Thanks for sharing. A lot of the older patterns were written with the assumption that everyone knew how to crochet. My grandmother put my 1st hook in my hand when I was 5 years old. I made a scarf😮 and yes I still have the needle. Good old Susan Bates!

[@michellestone8238]

my grandmother used to bead n crochet when she had beads stuck she used a sharp pocket knife to pop them apart ...

[@somechick941]

How cute ☺️

[@jamiemiesler322]

I can’t imagine working with thread. I think I would be SO frustrated but you’ve inspired me. I just might try (maybe😂). This was so delicate & feminine. I love it!

[@melindahopper2723]

What you could have done with the stuck double bead is to squeeze it with some pliers, and it would break and fall off the yarn!

[@RealMelodyBlue]

I don't read comments or forward through the video, so I can try and guess. I know what this is!!

[@sarahmoore8138]

This is interesting cuz this is the first video i have seen that shows how to do beads. Granted i havent looked for it but thank you. I love your videos!

[@claireboyes1058]

Really sweet little purse. Could be repurposed nowadays for earbuds or charging cable

[@dawnstiles3318]

That purse is beautiful, I'd use it daily but to hold doggy bags.

[@shannonsullivan1968]

Well, if you had made it “long” it would have been too skinny to hold much more than coins or a hanky. The pattern should have perhaps called for more than 68 foundation chains. Tassels or rings on each corner with a drawstring at the top could be sorta interesting too.

[@hellndamnation9945]

As a strip it would make lovely cuffs and collar for an evening jacket.

[@hannahschumacher7034]

This started out as a "trust the process" and IT PAID OFF!!! Now in my foreseeable future, there WILL BE beads and MORE STRING/YARN 😊😊

[@dianeboughan6840]

Oh girl your so funny! ❤

[@lindagoesel3815]

Too bad you couldn't hear me yelling, "yes, keep going, looks fine!" 😅 it is beautiful.

[@ilenom1444]

This is the cutest little coin pouch everrrr. Love love love! I’m so so jealous of how good you can interpret and read a pattern this hard. You’re so talented! Keep up the good work 🤍❤️

[@justvintagecrochet]

Thank you so much!!

[@lindsayneider2700]

I've done this type of work before. What I did was break the bead off by using small pliers. Just don't break it from the sides. Pinch it from the hole ends, and that way, there is less of a chance of damaging the thread. Also, another tip is to string on more beads than you need. It's better to have some left over then to have to add them later and have a knot in your way. Hopefully, this helps. ❤

[@beccasmama63]

instead of cutting the thread you could used pliers and break the beads off

[@ceec165]

I’d try to break the stuck bead with pliers

[@teresafreeman2203]

This would be gorgeous border on a silk scarf

[@dianagarms6879]

Really beautiful and interesting to watch, but I just don’t have your talent or patience.😂❤

[@justvintagecrochet]

😊 thank you

[@helenmcleish4037]

Break the bead if it is deformed or stuck. They break easy with pliers.

[@heidinewcombe696]

A Victorian reticule wouldn't have held very much. Some coins, calling cards, smelling salts, hankie and maybe some opera glasses. They didn't need the carry on size purses of today. Very cute!

[@doninis1354]

I think I have to do a beaded project now. I thought this already with the fleur d'lis bag. It looks very pretty. I think I would have made a flap and close it with a beutiful button or a peace of juweliery. I am so happy I found your channel, not even that you entertain me but I also learn so much. Thank you.

[@krazedvintagemodel]

I love how you do what you do! When I "read" a pattern, it's always just a guess as to what is meant by the limited words, or weird wording. I usually just make things up as I go along until I like my results. Cheers!🧶

[@nextleesa]

This is such a beautiful piece. I know you found the ribbon but it doesn’t do the bag justice (to its beauty). Lovely work.

[@sallyAS4419]

As someone else said, just use a needle nose, or chain nose (jewelry) pliers & gently squeeze the bad bead to break it. Cover the bead as it breaks, for safety.

[@janetshook8968]

You can use Plyers and break them off rather than cut your thread. I do not remember if there is a particular type of plyers. I know how you feel! Great job!

[@ceec165]

I am learning so much watching you experiment. This helps me understand the principles of crochet

[@justvintagecrochet]

Wonderful!

[@LauraS_1194]

This is a super cute purse! Short or long❤😂👍
