The Hoya Bag is an overlay crochet pattern named after a houseplant I have that was grown from a cutting of my grandmother’s plant. The overlay crochet provides a beautiful texture for a bag, and the gentle flow of the design reminds me of leaves or ripples under water. I have included instructions for both a flat bottom or rectangular base, as well as the option for integrated or separate handles, making it versatile and customizable.
