May 1973 Crochet Bag with Fringe

5/5/2019

​The Crochet Bag with Fringe was the winner with 70% of the vote. 
The Materials:
  • 3oz of knitting worsted or yarn of equivalent weight
  • J hook
  • It doesn’t mention beads but there is a bead trim at the end of the instructions so I must need an unknown amount of beads
 
I’m going to use Bernat Maker Home Dec in Nautical Variegated.   This is a heavier weight than worsted but I think this style of yarn will a good bag.  
   
Picture
​They list the gauge for this project as 7 single equals 2 inches and my gauge with the Home Dec and a J hook is 6 single crochet to 2 inches.  My bag will turn out a little bigger than theirs.    If this turns out well I might do a second one in Scheepjes Catona.  The Catona is a sport weight so it should make a smaller bag.
 
The Pattern:
 
The pattern starts out with a chain and uses that as the base to crochet around.  It uses single crochet, double crochet and puff stitches then adds drawstrings, fringe and a bead trim. 
 
Over this weekend I went to the Pinner’s Conference with a friend (Hi Rachel!).  Next week I’ll share some of the things  we made.

    I'm from Minnesota and have been crocheting since 2003.  I inherited a box full of Workbasket Magazines from my mother-in-law and became obsessed with the vintage patterns.
