this is my own design.
Those who are interested in Tunisian crochet, here is the pattern
start with any no. of stitches
the 1st row follow the simple Tunisian pattern, i.e., draw a loop from each stitch till the end, then draw up a loop, draw through 2 loops in the 1st stitch, then from 2nd to last stitch, draw up a loop, draw through 3 loops, ch 1 turn at the end of each row
in the 3rd row, draw a loop from the 3rd stitch, then cross over, draw a loop from the 2nd stitch, continue in the same way, drawing from 5th, then from 4th & so on, till the end
4th row, like the the 2nd row, draw through all loops till the end, ch 1 turn
repeat 3rd & 4th row till the length you desire
to finish, draw up a loop from 3rd stitch, then make single crochet, then draw through 2nd stitch a loop, make a sc, continue till the end, then to get a better finish, make 1/2 rows of single crochet.
ps- as normally Tunisian crochet as a tendency to curl, when you begin, so, after making the desired no. of stitches, I made one row of single crochet, then started the Tunisian crochet, so it didn't curl much.
If anyone has any doubt, please free to mail me.
After making back, I made the front side of the bag longer, so it will fold over little.
Then I made single crochet strip to join the front, back & bottom, then made the strap, by reducing the no. of stitches in the first few rows, as the sides are broad.
then I made the long strip for the pocket, attached from side to bottom & to the other side.
Then I made a small flower to put in the front.
To make the flower, made the magic loop, made 12 double crochet in it, then joined to the 1st st.
For the petals, in the 2nd row, made 3 dc, 3 ch, *sl st, in the next 2 stitches, then made 3 ch, 3 dc, 3 ch*, ended with sl st, then 3 ch to join to top of the dc.
