For this new crochet market bag, tote bag, or shoulder bag, how would you like to call it I used Hobby lobby Crafter’s Secret Cotton Yarn; Contents: 100% Cotton; Yarn Weight: 4 – Medium; Recommended Knitting Needles: 4.5mm (USA: Size 7); Knit Gauge: 20 stitches x 26 ..cotton yarn I have never used before, and I can say that this will not be the last time you will see a project made out of this yarn.
The total amount used for this bag is just 210 g that makes it sturdy enough to hold all your stuff and at the same time so light that you would never want to put it down.
Pattern Details
This bag is worked from the bottom up. First, we will make the base and work in rows; then we will continue on the body and work in rounds. In the end, we will make the handles.
Ch- spaces are counted as a stitch and if it is indicated for example; skip 1 or 2 stitch(es), 1 dc in next = means to skip the ch-space and work the stitch in the next indicated stitch or if it is written dc in next 3 sts = it means to work the stitches counting the ch-spaces as a stitch as well.
Each ch-sp is made of 2chs which is equal to 2 sts.
For the 1st rnd of the bag’s body see pictures 4 and 5. You will see the spaces where you have to place each of your stitches.
The numbers in the brackets indicate the total stitches you must have after the row/round.
