APRIL WAVY BAG

MATERIALS:

Worsted Weight yarn, Main 3.5 ounces, Contrast 3/4 ounce
Size H (5.0 mm) and G (4.5mm) crochet hooks

APPROXIMATE MEASUREMENTS:

Height 11 inches, Circumference at upper edge 25

NOTES:

1. Read through all instructions before beginning.
2. The bag should be worked in a fairly tight stitch. You may need to use a different sized hook to get a suitable stitch.
3. I cut the yarn for the color changes. It could be carried up without cutting, but since I wasn’t going to line my bag I cut the yarn and wove in the ends.
4. When joining a new color, complete the joining slip stitch with the new color.
5. I used Red Heart Super Saver yarns.
