I would like to propose you to make this beautiful crochet bag, the thing that will make you much happier than you think :) (and not just you by the way). It’s a very fun, easy and flexible pattern which will help you to crochet it in any size you want and decorate it with flowers (as I made), butterflies, bunnies, lips, pineapples, owls, eyes, bows, stars, snow flakes, spider web, yo-yo or even pine cones. If you click on the words you will easily find the patterns. Also, this beautifully accessory will perfectly suit to any kind of your clothes whether you wear. I really enjoyed to work on this project and I seriously think to make a few more bags as a gift.
