Reusable bags are my favourites as they are not just cute but eco friendly too! I usually take some anywhere when I’m out in town for shopping!

I used different stitches to create a nice, interesting, beautifully textured look which gives some extra touch to the final product!

I used 100% Recycled Cotton Worsted in different colours from my stash. The colours together reminded me of springtime in my country, Hungary and the puff stitches look like little flowers blooming in the garden.

I really hope you will love this pattern as much as I do!

Happy Crocheting!
