Thanks for the tutorial......I have done the rows and not in the round.  This will be my next project.

i want to learn how to do this so i can make a purse out of nothing but pop tops, like the ones on ecoist

[alexandraf]

No problem... hope you all post your finished projects! And if anything is confusing or not clear, let me know

Also, gdeeaz... I looked up the bags on that website you mentioned, and I am thinking that something like that might need to be sewn together somehow, instead of crocheted... but I don't know! Would have to give it a shot.

Thanks for the tutorial! We've been collecting tabs for the Ronald McDonald house, but since switching jobs recently we don't have anywhere to take them. I guess I won't feel too guilty about using them for crafts. I'm def adding this to the to-do list.

This Purse is sooooo fabulous. we linked to your tutorial today on http://ausetkmt.com/style Recyced Frockery Blog.

Now This is Real Style.

Thanks for the Beautiful Tutorial on How to Do It.

I add my wish to those who say that we wish
there was one for the square clutch version on ecoist.

Perchance, do you happen to have one ?

Please Keep up the Highly Superior Work

Thanks so much for adding the tutorial. I inherited a massive stash of pop tabs and I've just been waiting for some easy-to-follow instructions to pop up

Thanks for the comments... I'm so glad that this has been put to good use!

ausetkmt - Thank you for linking the tutorial! If I ever get around to experimenting to make a bag like the ecoist one, I will try to get it figured out.

I love this purse! I'd like to post the photo on my knitting site(where I have occasional crochet posts), LoopyKnits.com, with a link back here -- do you mind?
