Supplies for the Crochet Bag

- Main yarns : Yarns: Thanks to the pattern structure, you can choose any type of yarn. The ones indicated are suggestions. If you want the same look (chunky stitches) as the one in the pictures, the weight category has to be the same as indicated.
*For each bag I crocheted together the main skein (for example : Parfait Chunky) with acrylic yarn (Premier Basix Worsted or Caron One Pound) to avoid stretching, make the bag more rigid and more weight resistant. Make sure that both yarn colors match.
