**********************************************************

I was updating some of my earlier crochet when I came across the stitch I fell in love with when I was first designing, the Tulip Stitch. I had some beautiful yarn I bought at a fiber fair that I was chomping at the bit to use, so I used that here with my Jaide Wrap.

I used Custom Yarn by Knitting on the Fringe. (Skein Weight:75g/2.64 oz
Yardage/Meters: 200 meters/217 yards)

Materials:
US G Crochet Hook or 4 mm
217 yards of # 2 Fine Yarn or Sports Weight Yarn
Scissors
Tapestry Needle

Stitches Used/Abbreviations:
dc – double crochet
sc – single crochet
ch – chain
alt ch 2 – alternate chain 2
fsc – foundation single crochet
sk – skip
rem – remaining

Special Stitches:
Shell = (2 dc, ch 2, 1 dc) all in the same stitch.
Foundation Single Crochet – is where you create the starting chain plus a row of single crochet all at one time.

Special Notes:

My yarn was handmade. With the different weights of 2 Fine Yarn or Sport Weight Yarn it may make your gauge a little different from mine. You can try going up or down a hook size to meet the gauge.

Video Tutorials:
foundation single crochet – Left Handed
foundation single crochet – Right Handed
alternate chain 2 – Left Handed
alternate chain 2 – Right Handed

Finished Size: 14” x 64”

Pattern Notes:
Pattern is written in U.S. Crochet Terms
beginning chain 3 counts as the 1st dc
alt ch 2 counts as the 1st dc
alt ch 2 takes the place of a double crochet and counts as your 1st dc. It is used to create a cleaner edge.
Row count is a multiple of 3
Due to different yarn types, the gauge may be off. Try going up or down a hook size to meet gauge.

Gauge:
US G Crochet Hook or 4 mm
18 st x 8 rows = 4”
6 Shells x 8 Rows = 4”

Gauge Swatch: 4” x 4″

R1: ch 19, sc in 2nd ch from and each rem st across. turn (18 sc)

R2: alt ch 2 (or ch 3) in the 1st st, *sk 2 st, shell in the next st (see instructions above) repeat from * across until the last 3 st, sk 2 st and dc in the last st. turn

R3: alt ch 2 (or ch 3) in the 1st st, shell in the next dc, *sk 4 st, shell in the next st* Repeat from * across until the last dc, dc in the last dc. turn

R4-R9: Repeat R2-R3

********************************************************

Customizing:

Width:
To create a wider wrap (short rows) add multiples of 3. The basic width of a wrap is 14” – 18”

Length:
Use your Height plus 4” – 8” to reach your desired length by continuing to repeat R2 & R3.

4 st x 2 rows = 1”
8 st x 4 rows = 2”
12 st x 6 rows = 3”
16 st x 8 rows = 4”
6 Shells x 8 Rows = 4”

Lisa of My Fingers Fly shares her Floral Handbag Crochet Pattern. In addition to crocheting this handbag, Lisa has added a special lining. She also adds lobster claw clasps to add the perfect handle. The flowers add that special touch in the Floral Handbag design.

Angela Ader of Nine Inspired shares her Roxy Retro Circle Bag. The circle bag combines vintage and modern when using the granny square circle design. You can use your scrap yarn as well when crocheting the Roxy Retro Circle Bag.

Ashley Edmonds of Through The Loop Yarn Craft shares her Hampton Handbag. Ashley uses 24/7 cotton yarn from Lion Brand in designing this handbag. Ashley also uses the Herringbone Half Double Crochet stitch to bring definition to her Hampton Handbag.

Ashley Parker of the Loopy Lamb shares her Bobblelicious Bag. As you can tell by the name Ashley uses the Bobble Stitch. In designing her bag, she uses Chunky yarn to make those Bobbles stand out! She also uses a beautiful teal color cotton liner inside of the Bobblelicious Bag.

Whitney Dunning of Pine Tree Crochet shares her Rainbow Sprinkles Handbag. Ashley uses the Wattle Stitch and the Crab Stitch in designing her Rainbow Sprinkles Bag. The handbag is worked in the round and you can use any Red Heart Super Saver varigated yarn in crocheting your own bag.

Agat Rottman-Cassel of Made by Gootie shares her Chevron Bucket Bag. Agat designed this bag for the I Like Crochet magazine. The bag is worked in the round from bottom to top and uses the Ripple Stitch. Agat adds eyelets to the Chevron Bucket Bag for the drawstring to run through.

Lisa has another free crochet pattern on her website for a adorable Zebra Coin Purse. .This adorable pattern can be made in 3 hours. The Zebra Coin Purse is big enough to hold credit cards, money, drivers licenses and more.

Whitney Dunning of Pine Tree Crochet shares another free handbag crochet pattern, the Grab and Go Clutch. This bag uses the Moss Stitch to create the beautiful design. The Grab and Go Clutch uses very little yarn, so you can use those scraps of yarn you have laying around.

My free crochet pattern I am sharing is for my Sharon Bag. I designed this bag for my mom, Sharon, so she could carry around her iPad. In designing my handbag I used Cables/Braids using the Front Post and Back Post Double Crochet. The Sharon Bag is worked in the round going into both sides of your starting chain. There are 2 sizes to choose from, Small and Large.

You can find my Video Tutorial for the Front Post Double Crochet below.
