I crocheted my first bag ever... pretty cool huh?
I had all these yarn left-overs begging to be used and this was the perfect project for it! At first glance I didn't think these colors would work together, but I was pleasantly surprised :)
So where did I get the pattern? I used the free Sunny Shell Purse on Ravelry.
This pattern was a little harder to use than I expected. My first attempt didn't turn out so well. The pattern calls for only 4 double crochet stitches for each shell and mine ended up a bit misshapen that way. It works so much better to use 5 double crochet stitches for each shell.
That's a pretty good attempt for a first bag ever and it's nice to adapt the pattern to suit yourself and it looks good to me even though I've not seen the original. x
