Market Bag

Lion Brand® Cotton-Ease® (new)

GAUGE:

15 dc + 10 rnds = 4 in. [10 cm] working back and forth in sps between dc. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

dc2tog (dc dec) Yo, insert hook in sp between next 2 sts and draw up a loop, yo and draw through 2 loops. Yo, insert hook in next sp and draw up a loop. Yo, draw through 2 loops, yo and draw through all loops on hook.

NOTES:

Work dcs into sps between sts, rather than into sts.

LOVE this bag! My daughter has stolen it and claimed it for her own. Uses it for everything from market day to the swimming pool. The pattern was super easy to construct.
