Crochet Patterns - Drawstring Bag
Size 14 1/2'' x 16"
Materials: 7 oz of a fine mercerized crochet cotton;
(No. 5) Size C crochet hook;
1 yd each of Red and Blue cord.
Gauge: 26 sts and 18 rows to 4" over pat worked on
size C hook. To save time, take time to check gauge.
To make: Ch 93 and beg pat as follows:
Base row (RS) 1 hdc in 3rd ch from hook, 1 hdc in side of previous hdc by working around post of st, * skip next ch, 1 hdc in next ch, 1 hdc in side of previous hdc, rep from * to last 2 ch, 1 hdc in last ch. Turn.
1st row Ch 1, 1 sc in each st to end. Turn.
2nd row Ch 2 to count as first hdc, skip first st, *1 hdc in next st, 1 hdc in edge of previous hdc, skip next st, rep from * to last sc, 1 hdc in last sc. Turn.
First and 2nd rows form pat and are repeated throughout.
Continue in pat until bag measures 16" from beg, ending with a 2nd row.
Work a second piece in the same way.
To finish
Press each piece using a damp cloth and stretch work slightly, taking care not to pull it out of shape. Join the two pieces together by working a seam of single crochet around three sides, leaving the top open. To work the single crochet seam, insert the hook through both
layers and adjust the spacing of the stitches as necessary. Wrap the threading ends of the cords with tape to avoid fraying. Then thread each length of cord through the half double rows at the top of the bag. Knot the ends of the cords and untwist them to make tassels. Dampen and trim the ends to neaten the tassels.

I can crochet , I taught myself a few years ago. I am not very good at getting my gauge right so I tend to make blankets and dolls clothes for my nieces..
