Yet another project, I’ve recently re-discovered my love of crochet, I am self taught and haven’t picked a hook up for many years. I have found a new spin on crochet bags and have not been able to stop making them, this is my 5th bag, this time for my daughters birthday. The only downside is the material you need to make them, it can be quite expensive! This one is made with macrame cord so quite cost effective. I will post the finished bag when I finish.

Thank you for all your lovely comments and favs all are appreciated and welcome.
Looks great Margaret. I learned to crochet many years ago but last year I joined a crochet class at our local wool shop. I met a lady there who makes 1940's styled bags. They were incredible. She sells them at 40's events. I really went to encourage my daughter to finish a crocheted elephant from a kit I had bought her, and I wanted to learn how to follow a pattern. I really enjoyed it.
Lovely stitch for the bag - I also haven't done any crocheting for years Like you self taught and left-handed and quite a challenge to follow a pattern esp garments with left and right sides and shaping ! !
Looking fabulous and such a lovely colour. I can knit and crochet but recently its been knitting, inspires me to go back to crochet, I hadn't thought of bags.
