This bag was originally published in Spring 2005 Crochet Fantasy. The written out instructions (without abbreviations), graph, and illustrations for carrying and switching colors are for right handed crocheters only. One color is carried while another is single crocheted and the colors are switched to create the motif. The bag is felted in a washing machine. Please look at my web page for more information about my tapestry crochet books and links to free patterns and videos.
