I just ordered some of that nylon to try one of the purses too. I hope that I don't have the trouble you're having, Trina. I'll keep you posted. I have the advantage of having crocheted for years, however, so if I learn anything I think is helpful, I'll let you know. Nice to see the new posts. I've just been out of touch for a bit here at Dianes's. ARGH! I just ordered some of that nylon to try one of the purses too. I hope that I don’t have the trouble you’re having, Trina.

I connect the row with a slip stitch (for the seam) and then turn, and crochet the next row, I don't add a single chain (which I believe some patterns say to do...the slip stitch works for me if I've completed EVERY single crochet in the row). Don't despair! I unraveled the first one three times (once all the way to the base as well) and I still stitched the whole darn thing with the wrong stitch! :) You can do it! ;) I do have to say that the seam and turning was the most difficult part for me to learn when making purses.
