HOW TO MAKE THE BAG?

Base oval

With Caricia Classic yarn, chain 35 and work single crochet along one side until the end of the row. In the 35th chain, increase 3 sc in the same chain stitch to continue working on the other side. Continue working in a circle (always increasing by 3 stitches in the last chain) until the base is finished, which is made with three colors.

Bag body

Continue working in striped stitch without increases until you reach a length of 31 cm.

Handle

Chain 8 and work single crochet until you reach a length of 100 cm.

Closure flap

Work the same as the bag base, but starting with 26 chain stitches and using three colors. In the fourth row, make a 5-stitch buttonhole at one end for the button (see photo).

ASSEMBLY AND FINISHING

Sew the handle to both ends of the bag.
Sew the flap to the center of the bag.
Sew the toggle button to the bag with yarn.
Cut an oval of hard cardboard the same size as the base oval and cover it with fabric. Insert it into the bottom of the bag.
