Crochet bags are some of my favorite summer projects because I can put them to use right away. But, I must confess that I don’t love sewing in liners. Without a liner, I’m limited in what I can carry inside of a crocheted bag. In this pattern and tutorial, I show you how to crochet this ripple bag and how to make an easy, removable, duct tape liner.
