Free Crochet Mixed Bag Pattern

Easier as you go along

First time to use a tapestry stitch like this. It was awkward at first, but got easier. The Crochet Crowd video was VERY helpful! I'm very happy with the way it turned out.

Fun to do

Great way to learn a new technique, if you get stuck there's a tutorial on the Crochet Crowd site. It's simple to be able to order the yarn and pattern, I saw it was on sale and got all excited and buzzed to the store so I could better see what two colorways go together for me. The O'Go splits and can be a little difficult to work with, it feels almost like a jute when making this bag. But you have a wide choice of color combinations, or can use the ones the pattern was made with. Great pattern for using up leftovers also. I'm really enjoying this project. Not sure why someone would give less stars when it's not the pattern or company's fault they are unable to open up a link. I can see each project and open it up easily.

Cute Bag

Easier than it looks, especially with video support from The Crochet Crowd. You should understand how to carry yarn under stitches in order to be successful. I added a purchased handle. I used plastic canvas to strengthen the bottom under the lining.

Unable to view item in the first view.

I find that with this pattern, as with most. I'm unable to see the whole finished item photo in the initial click - before clicking on the pattern. This means that anything I might be interested is at least 3 extra clicks to see a whole photo and sometimes it's too frustrating to browse patterns. I don't know if it's a setting thing or what.

Your base instructions for round 2 doesn't make sense, just adding 48sc on each side without the corner the total is 96, if add the corner the total would be 110sc. Can you explain it. Thanks!

It appears, based on the photo sample, that color G should actually be Color F. In Round 1 of the body, it states to use color G and color D. According to the materials list, Color F is pink and Color G is burgundy.

I think there is a possible error. instructions for the 'BASE', for round 2, last instruction is to SC in next 48 stitches - but that would put the corner stitch marker in the middle of the base, not a corner. should be stitch 38? not 48?
