Designed by Marianna Mel and available on Ravelry, these crocheted gift bags are so versatile. You can make them in any size, color or design you wish. And these are a great beginner project!!
Made in DK yarn, these bags crochet up quickly and easily. Some of my favorite DK yarns are Paintbox Yarns DK which comes in 58 fabulous shades, Red Heart Fashion Soft, and Lion Brand Coboo.
To make the Crocheted Gift Bags you will need the following supplies:
- DK (Size 3) yarn- the amount depends on the size of the bag. 1 ball is sufficient for one bag
- G/6 (4 mm) crochet hook
- ribbon or lace trim
WARNING: THE PATTERN IS WRITTEN IN UK TERMINOLOGY. For US crocheters a treble crochet = a U.S. double crochet and a UK double = a US single!! For more crochet basics see the tips and techniques from Nana HERE.
