Tips

• Use a stitch marker to keep track of the first stitch in each round, especially when working in a spiral.
• If your gauge is different, your finished bag size will vary. Crochet a gauge swatch to ensure your finished item matches the expected size.
• For a sturdier bag, you can work a round of BLO sc on Rnd 7 before continuing with regular sc rounds.
