This beige mesh bag was made with Catania cotton and Cannon thread held together. This green bag, was made following the same pattern, but crocheted with 3 strands of Cannon thread. I used up 4 1/2 balls of the Cannon.
It did not turn out as well as I expected. The beige one can carry the 36 balls of thread nicely and it doesnt pull down too much, but the green one stretched a lot with the weight. It contained only 28 balls, but the bag seemed to have reached its maximum weight capacity :p
I should make one green, too. I will have to go get some green cotton though. Yours turned out really nice. :)
