Try to crochet this Valentine Gift Bag!

Image
This hangind gift bag I have made for my daughter - she likes sweets and little bags to put her stuff in so much. The bag is crocheted from Sport Yarn, you would need around 35-40g. I have desided to add a tassel and matching bead. At first, you need to crochet flowers motifs and join tem (3 for each bag), then, you work around and create a heart-shaped small doilies that are finally joined together into a bag. The bag, by the wy, has a closure: the handle goes through 2 small loops at another side of the bag and when it is hanged - the gar on top is much smaller. If you would like to try this bag, look for this gift bag in the shape of heart crochet pattern in my Etsy shop. Good Luck!
