Happy crocheting x
On this one I've made the foundation chain slighty longer so its big enough to fit my kindle.
This is really cute! I'll have to try one.
ReplyDeleteAm making one now. Question: is the right or wrong side of the crochet the outside of the bag? Your pics look like the wrong side and my piece, im about 5rounds into it, is curling towards the wrong side as the outside. Hope that makes sense
