Spread the crepes on a flat work surface and place 1 heaping tablespoon of the crabmeat salad in the
center of each. Draw up the crepes as though making a bundle, twisting the crepe gently to enclose
the crabmeat. Tie a chive around the top of the bundle to seal the purse.

Serve immediately, or store, tightly wrapped, in the refrigerator for up to 1 hour.
