Waffle Bag - Crochet Bag - Crochet Pattern

BAG – WAFFLE

Need a new bag? How about this one? :)

The tiny waffle stitch pattern is a real eyecatcher. Use one single color or combine all of your favorite ones - it’s up to you!

The bag comes with an inner bag for your purse, phone etc. It has two loops you can put krey-rings on.

The pattern describes two sizes, but can easily be adjusted to fit the size (height) you need.

The waffle stitch is a bit of a yarn-eater. So beware. ;)

All steps are explained in detail in words and pictures, so this pattern is suitable for (practiced) beginners as well.
This pattern contains 15 pages of crochet instructions and 10 pages of detailed step-by-step instructions.

Used techniques (US crochet terms): magic ring, chain, slip stitch, single crochet, double crochet, back post double crochet – explained, front post double crochet – explained, increases and (invisible) decreases, crocheting in front loops and back loops – explained, changing yarn-color.
The bags are crocheted in two variants of closed rounds – explained.
