CELL PHONE CASE & BAG & TOTE to CROCHET in WORSTED WEIGHT YARN by LILY CHIN

THIS IS A LEAFLET FROM FIBER TRENDS CALLED A TRIO OF CROCHETED BAGS,  DESIGNED BY LILY M. CHIN FROM THE LILY CHIN COLLECTION.

TO FUNCTION PROPERLY, A BAG MUST HAVE ROOM AT THE BOTTOM TO EXPAND WHEN FILLED WITH THINGS.  FLAT ENVELOPES WILL NOT DO!  MY EASY SOLUTION IS TO BEGIN WITH A STRIP FOR THE BOTTOM, THEN PICK UP STITCHES AROUND & WORK UPWARDS. 

SIZES:  CELL PHONE/EYEGLASS HOLDER – ABOUT 4.5″ WIDE X 7.5″ HIGH; PURSE – ABOUT 9″ WIDE X 7″ HIGH; TOTE – ABOUT 18″ WIDE X 15″ HIGH.

YARN NEEDED:  WORSTED WEIGHT MERCERIZED COTTON – 74 (222, 666) YARDS.  74 YARDS OF CONTRAST COLOR WILL TRIM ALL BAGS. 

CROCHET HOOK NEEDED:  US SIZE G-4 (4.0 MM).

YOU CAN USE ANY SIZE CROCHET HOOK ACCORDING TO WHATEVER YARN YOU USE – BUT, AIM FOR A FIRM, NON-STRETCHY GAUGE, PERHAPS A HOOK SIZE OR TWO LESS THAN WHAT THE YARN MAY NORMALLY CALL FOR. 

EASY, SIMPLE PATTERNS TO MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER!  CLASSIC BAG STYLES!
