You'll need:
200g of polypropylene fiber of yellow and purple colors;
Crochet hook 4.
Instructions
Make a chain of 50 chain sts.
Crochet a square wuth 7-8 cm width with single crochet. Use 1 chain st for increase. Crochet it around with single crochets to smooth the edge. If you want your bag not to loose its form, make 1 circle row of double crochets, insert your crochet hook under the "stem" of the previous row crochet.
Make the other part of work with double crochets. In the 1st row of pattern you should make 3 double crochets above 1 crochet, through the 2 crochets of the previous row, make a group of 3 crochets between such groups of the previous row for all the other rows.
Make 3 chain sts increase in the beginnig of each row. You should get 32 groups of crochets and 96 single crochets in one row.
In two rows of ornament, attach yellow fiber and crochet 3 crochets with purple yarn and 3 crochets with yellow yarn. Replace the group of yellow crochets to right 3 rows at a run and 2 rows - to left to make yellow zigzag.
Continue crocheting 6 rows with purple yarn, and then 6 rows of yellow yarn. Cut the purple yarn and fasten it.
The main part of your bag is ready. Make the following 4 rows with single crochets, decreasing the quanity of crochets in the 1st row to 88, i.e., skip 1 crochet in every 12 crochets.
Place the marker to the beginning of row. Make the handles. Divide the quantity of sts in the following way: 26 crochets between handles, 18 crochets between one handle.
After making 13 single crochets in the 5th row from the beginning, make a chain of 60 chain sts in order to get long handle.
Continue making single crochets to the beginning of the second handle. Make 24 single crochets. Make the second handle in analogy with the first one and crochet the row to the end.
While crocheting the second handle, fold your bag in half and correct the distance between handles. Make one more circle row with single crochet. Cut the yarn and fasten it.
