Crocheted Market Bag – Work in Progress

Jump to Comments

I started a new project today, in part to use up the last half of a ball of yarn. I really like the colors a lot, they make me happy, and I want to make sure it doesn’t end up forgotten at the bottom of a box.

I don’t have a pattern, yet again. ;)

I started the bottom with the Magic Circle for the bottom and I’m stitching out from there. I believe I made 10 sc after the initial ch 2. Each successive row (circle?) starts with an extra ch and then 2 sc in each sc from there. I’m doing it in sc because it’s the bottom of the bag and I want it to be sturdy, not stretchy.

And I’m being tacky (frugal?) by using a paperclip as a stitch marker. :)

I’m not counting rows because this pattern doesn’t need to be precise, plus I’m making it up as I go! I’ll just stop when it looks like it’s big enough to be a decent sized bag. I’ll report in when I make up my mind what happens after that.

    I finished it over the weekend but I haven’t posted the pictures yet. I will do it either later tonight or tomorrow.
