BAG - SEE-THROUGH FLOWERS

Bags – you need them!

For shopping, appointments, or just to take some crafting tools and a good book with you into the garden. :)

This colorful bag is easy to crochet and yet has that special something: the little flowers allow you a small peek at what's inside!

In case the bag's measurements don't suit you, you can easily adapt its size.
This pattern includes – next to the detailed pattern for the shown bag – general instructions to make the bottom (and with that, the bag) any size you want.

Huge shopping bag or tiny phone case – with this pattern you can create pretty much everything. :)

SIZE

• The size depends on your gauge, chosen type of yarn and crochet hook size.
• I'm using Puppets Lyric yarn (8/8, DK/Light-Worsted) from Coats and a 4.0 mm hook.
• With that I get the following size/s: 30 cm wide & 38 cm tall (laid flat, without handles).
• With heavier/lighter yarn the bag will be bigger/smaller.
• The size can be changed individually (instructinos included).
