What's Hookin' Good Lookin'? {Market Bag}


Sooo...Pinterest is my new crocheting inspiration if you haven't noticed! There are just so many patterns that I never even knew was out there. My "to do" crochet list went from 5 projects to 50 in the few months I've been pinning. Love it though! {follow my Things to Crochet board to see what I pin}

The pattern for this market bag is from Oh the Cuteness

I did the handle part differently though. I made it a drawstring. It was pretty easy to do. Here's how I did it {I kinda winged it so if it's not how you are supposed to do it I apologize}:

After the netting part is made I did the sc around. Then I did (fpdc,bpdc) around. Then another round of sc and fastened off. I then attached yarn to one of the bpdc posts and chained double the stitches I sc'ed around and fastened off. I strung the chain around weaving in and out of the fpdc & bpdc posts and attached it back to the first chain. {If this is confusing and you have a question please comment below or shoot me an email}


I'm pretty happy with how it came out. The only thing is if you are putting in any heavy fruit {like I have here - apples and oranges} you need to have the bag resting on a surface so you can fit more in - otherwise it pulls it down too much.

I just have a question- I made this for a friend who saw my pin but can't crochet. She is my friend so I am giving it to her but she asked how much I charge if others see it and want one. I have no clue how much these would go for so please tell me what you would pay for one of these. I don't even know what to tell her! :) 

What's on your hook today?
