Pretty In Pink Clutch
"The Pretty in Pink Clutch is perfect for a night out, or to hold make up or jewelry. Clutches are such a classic accessory. This one is great for gifting or taking to holiday parties. I made mine in pink and purple, but you can choose any color to go with your style! Make one to match each of your favorite dresses or outfits. The sample was made in Red Heart Fashion Soft in Bright Pink and Lavender for I Like Crochet Magazine. Since then that yarn has been discontinued, so I now suggest the Caron Simply Soft."
My Go To Bag
Straps 26 inches long and 2 inches wide Bag 17 inches long by 15 inches wide when measured on a flat surface Handle Drop 14 inches My Go To Bag is my practical, everyday crocheted bag. I wanted a bag I could use for everything - from beach bag to book bag - a single crocheted base gives this bag extra support - the first few rounds are crocheted in double crochet and then the main bag is worked up in an easy to work granny stitch stripe pattern. I chose to make my straps slightly wider than most bags because when you fill the bag and the straps stretch, they will remain comfortable on your shoulders. If you would like to have a narrower strap, it is very easy to change the width of the strap. Simply add one extra decrease repeat of: Sc2tog, 1 sc in each of the next 2 sts, sc2tog. Ch 1, turn. 4 in place of R11 of the straps and for R80 work: 2 sc in the first st, 1 sc in each of the next 2 sts, 2 sc in the last st, ch 1, turn. 6. Have fun making this simple, attractive and practical Go To Bag! You can substitute any yarn and hook for this stitch pattern - just remember when you substitute if your gauge is different, the finished size of your project will also be different.
Market Tote Bag Pattern
You'll never forget to bring your reusable bag to the grocery store ever again when you make this market tote bag. You'll be looking for more reasons to use this bag than just for carrying groceries when you finish it and realize how cute it is. Put your single crochet stitch to work to make the body of this crochet purse, and to make the strap, too. This bag is simple and easy to make, and looks great. You get to choose three of your favorite colors to complement each other or coordinate the bag to match the color you wear most often. Or get bold and pick a single color that pops.
