For this project I used a handkerchief, but this purse can be made on a much larger scale with any lightweight fabric so long as it's in the shape of a square.

-
Fold your handkerchief or square fabric in half, corner to corner, with right sides facing together.
-
Forming a ring with your index finger and thumb, slide down one corner about halfway to the middle. Tie a knot at this point.
-
Repeat step 2 on the other side.
-
Separate the top corners and turn the whole thing inside out. You will have a sort of pouch shaped like a teardrop.
-
Now tie the top corners together using a double knot as close to the ends as you can.
-
Enjoy your Purse!
-
Or if you'd rather more defined handles, take the top corners and twist them a few times before tying together.
