Venusray’s Round-base Goody Bag

This is a quick and easy project! I made this to keep some knicks-knacks from my big bag.
So it’s easy to grab them.

Materials:

• Cotton yarns. I use Lily Sugar'n Cream Solid 2 yarns to switch colors.
• size H Crochet hook.

Pattern:

Ch4, join with sl st in first st to make a ring.

Base:
Rnd 1: ch2, 9 hdc in ring, join to ch2 space at beginning of round with a sl st. (9 sts)
Rnd 2: ch2, 2 hdc in each stitch around, join with a sl st. (18 sts)
Rnd 3: ch2, 2 hdc in first st, 1hdc in next st repeat from * around, join with a sl st. (27 sts)
Rnd 4: ch2, 2 hdc in first st, 1 hdc in next 2 sts repeat from * around, join with a sl st. (36 sts)

round with a sl st.
Rnd 10, 12, 14, 16: Repeat Rnd 8
Rnd 11,13, 15, 17: Repeat Rnd 9 (I switch color at Rnd 13)

Rnd 18: Change color back to Main color, do sc in each stitch

Rnd 19 - 31: hdc in each stitch. These rows define how tall you want your bag to be. 12 rows is
about 4 inches.
Rnd 32: switch color, do sc in each stitch.
Done.

Draw string:
Make long chain of the contrast color. Slide in between stitches.
