Old bags, new bags

I couldn't count anymore how many crochet bags I've made so far. A few have been sold, and many have been gifted. I have several in my closet and other hiding places, some of which I can't recall...But thanks to Ravelry, I am able to organize my bag projects now - at least virtually. The inspiration came when I saw that the current featured Ravelers were those who have the most bag projects that are linked to patterns found in the Ravelry database. At first I thought, I do have a lot of bag projects, but some of the patterns aren't on Ravelry yet and some I haven't found time to link to. Then again, I saw it as a challenge ;) So recently, I linked to patterns and I also added a couple of patterns to the database.


You might want to take a look at my bag projects on Ravelry.
But wait, here are the bags I recently finished.
These are all just small bags, but I have lined it all and I added magnetic snaps on the one without the drawstring.
All these bags are linked to the patterns:

Wrist Purse



Vertical-striped bag



Mini Fat-bottom bag

  2. I agree with Christina! I really love that design, too bad I can't get a copy of the book locally. :(

    How come the recent shoulder bag is not included in your collection?

  4. Thanks Christina, Gene and Riohnna!
    The mini fat bottom bag is now my favorite :) In case you missed it, its a free pattern from a japanese site...just follow the link.

    Gene, I think the bag you have in mind is the Yogini bag - its not mine. Its one of the designs featured in the CLF book.
    It would be hard (too expensive) to get a copy from U.S., but if I can have my sister buy me one, then I'll have two copies. My contributor copy, and an extra copy to show-off ;)

  8. Hi Lesa, Tina and Zu...thanks for stopping by!
    I'm planning to make more mini fat-bottoms as Christmas gifts for my 20-something nieces. I'm sure they'll like it in pink or blue.
