My Creation:

This was a bit of a challenge but got there in the end. This bag is crocheted in a cotton yarn in a pale khaki and sand colour. The stitch is called crocodile or mermaid stitch because of the scale design which i found on the net. I added two crocheted handles and a large flower to finish it off. The pattern suggested both sides in this pattern but i gave it a plain crocheted back and did the same edging to match on the front part at the top.
few days
This is amazing, Ann! I think the colours are so beautiful, and perfect for the summer, when it eventually arrives! I am new to crochet, and it'll be a long time before I can attempt something like this, but I could manage the flower!!
