Bath Bag













.............................................Today I made this bath bag. It really works! I messed up a little on the top half. ( see the lump) But besides that, it's perfect! ( Considering I just learned how to crochet. ) To make this:




1. Chain 29 and then make a double crochet in the fourth stich and in every stich till the end of the row.


2. Circle your work around so that the beginning of the row is next to the end. ( I wish I had a picture to show u. )


3. Do a slip stich into the space.


4. Chain 3.


5. skip a stich and do a half double crochet.


6. Chain 1.


***7. Now do this: >Skip a stich >Make a half double crochet in the next stich > Chain 1.***
This is an important part.


8. do this all the way around the loop.


9. OK. Good. Now do this: > Make a half double crochet in the next big space. > chain 1.
This is the MOST important part of the whole bag!


10. Do this until your bag is 1 inch longer than your bar of soap.


11. You probably know how to finish off......


12. Close up the Bottom of the bag by making a slip stich all the way across.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
13. Separately make a 12 inch chain.


14. Now weave it in and out of the bag so it is a draw-string.


15. Put the bar of soap in, and you are DONE!!!!!! The best crochet book, ever, is from Klutz! go to their website - Y click the heart!
