Project Notes: String Bag # 3

Entry about string bag project here.

So, after shopping on Saturday, I decided that the extra chain-20 rows make it much too long a bag, so I ripped apart bag #2 and took them out.

One ball of Royal Crochet Cotton #3 will take me up to the 3rd chain 16 round, if I start the base with it. If I do the base in one color and switch at the sc "beading" rows, I will have leftover in the main color of the "netting" section, then I can do the upper sc rows in the bag base color, and have leftover on both colors.

I now have a pink bag with a green top, and a bag with a green base, top, and handles, and yellow "netting" section.

Royal Crochet Cotton #3 is 100% cotton, and recommended for 3.5 mm knitting needles, or a size E hook. I'm using a Clover C, 2.25 mm.
