Here are the latest ' round' of crocheted bags. Count Sockula started crocheting baggage merely to have something to do when resting a painful knee. Now I can't stop.
It's a little scary. Muahahaaaa.
The white-ish drawstring mini was from long-forgotten yarn that I found, and it had already been worked into a round. It's a soft, lustrous cotton with a springy twist. The green and white mini is stretch sock yarn that had been wound a little too stretchy.
Most of the others are made of discloth cotton. And very, very simple not-really-patterns at all, in which you either make a round in whatever stitch you like, or a rectangle, to make the bottom, and stop increasing to make the sides, which in most cases is a simple arch stitch.
Hook sizes appropriate to yarn: H/8 for the dishcloth cotton, E/4 for the smaller stuff.
There are three, no, four more bags in the works, including a mini done from free yarn given to me by a local store. I don't know what yarn it is but it's pretttyyyy. Pics when they are done.
Oh..the biiig striped bag? An old one, in a yarn now no longer made (Speed Cro-Sheen, pity...loved that yarn)...and sagging from holding ALL the previous bags.
Stay tuned. Dr. Inkenstein is looming on the horizon, and I see MOAR blue ink!
Kewl bags!
