I've admired many of the cute wristlet bags you all have made from this pattern. I'm off to Disneyland in 3 days and this would be just the right size for a day in the park as well as convienent. However, I can't seem to get to the actual pattern here on Crochetville. A google search also didn't work. Can anyone help? Thanks for your hel

That is a cute bag!
There's also Dot's Little Ditty Bag (http://patternsbydot.blogspot.com/2005/11/dots-little-ditty-bag.html) (free pattern) that might work too...
What a great idea for a vacation to use these little bags. Just perfect.

thanks, folks. I guess I didn't realize AJ's Wrist Bag was not a free pattern. Bummer! Dot's bag is adorable too and I've liked her other patterns I've done. I like the size.
Yes, I think it'll be great theme park bag. I find even small waist packs too big for the little I carry in Disneyland & a small sling bag doesn't always work with my fashion statement for the day :yes. These seem small, easy to carry on rides, and stylish.
Thanks for the help. Maybe I'll try decoding the AJ bag...money is tight and $4 for one pattern is high for me.
Appreciate the help.

Yes AJ's bag would be cute if you had the money...
Hot Pink Crochet Purse (http://knottygeneration.blogspot.com/2006/04/hot-pink-bracelet-purse.html) here's another one similar to AJs... You need to click on the jpg's to get the pattern...
Nylon Lacy Cord Wrist Bag (http://www.crochetville.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6367) here's one thats more like AJ's with a thicker wrist holder... you probablydon't need to use the nylon thread, but could.
A few others to look at and think about. If you do design your own, think about writing out the pattern to share, as you can tell there isn't really enough and it's a great idea for the theme park without getting in the way.

Debbi, thanks for the additional patterns. I love the idea of a "bracelet purse." While big bags have their place, I find the bigger the bag, the more I carry I don't really need. I'm going to do one of these for the weekend. Nylon Lacy Cord Wrist Bag is beautiful but no sense how large it is? Anyone know?
Appreciate all the ideas!

Understand about the bigger the bag the more you put in it:yes
I did a Little Brown Purse (http://www.crochetville.org/forum/showthread.php?t=58301&highlight=brown+purse) for the weekend, well mostly the laundry mat, but it worked out great. I do like the over the shoulder when I'm running around and looking through stores and just too busy to want to worry about it falling off my shoulder.
Actually the wrist purse would work great for those who work and go to lunch and need a little bag... just just cash, card, id, phone...
