BAG

/HOW I DID IT-
6.5 hook, 1/2 DBL CROC., 2 colors of yarn (thin) plus slimline cord ,or hemp cord all tied together.   You can switch colors during the process, if you want a multi-colord bag. Optional: pom poms to sew on back.

Crochet a large rectangle or square shape.  When you think it's long enough to hold what you want (ex. notebooks, pens, ruler, laundry, etc,..) Fold it in half.  Take your yarn needle & sew up the side.  Dbl. tacking at top. If you want to leave a space at the top for a fold over flap, then don't sew all the way up.   You can mak a "knob" out of yarn stitched together, to push through a spot on the bag to close it.  Sew up bottom of bag with yarn needle. The handle is a couple rows of crochet, dbl. tacked inside the  bag, one at the right corner & one at the left corner.   I used bright colors, which makes a nicer bag for the children or teenagers.  Sew pom poms on the back in a row.
