CONSTRUCTION
This crochet bag is worked in two panels. Hexagons, horizontal half hexagons and vertical half hexagons are worked and seamed together to form two 14 x 12.25” / 35.5 x 31 cm rectangle panels. Two rounds of stitches are crocheted around each panel, setting it up for working the sides, bottom and handle. Optional instructions are given to line the panels in either knit or crochet. Once both panels (this includes half the side/bottom/handle depths) are complete, a seam is worked joining the two halves along the sides, bottom and handle, giving it added strength and a place for a fun colour pop, to feature in the seam line.
