EXPLANATIONS FOR THE PATTERN:
-------------------------------------------------------
PATTERN:
See diagram A.1.
CHAIN STITCH:
If you work outermost on the hook the chain stitch will often be too tight; 1 chain stitch should be as long as 1 single/double/treble crochet is wide.
CROCHET INFORMATION (for the bag itself, not the squares):
At the beginning of each round of single crochets work 1 chain stitch, which does NOT replace the first single crochet. The round finishes with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch. Turn and work the next round from the right side.
At the beginning of each round of double crochets work 3 chain stitches, which do NOT replace the first double crochet. The round finishes with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain stitch at the beginning of the round. Turn and work the next round from the wrong side.
When working the sides and strap back and forth, replace the first double crochet on the row with 3 chain stitches and the first single crochet with 1 chain stitch.
DECREASE TIP-1:
Decrease 2 double crochets by working 3 double crochets together: Start 1 stitch before the marker-stitch, work 1 double crochet, but wait with the last yarn over and pull-through, work 1 double crochet in the marker-stitch but wait with the last yarn over and pull-through, work 1 double crochet in the next stitch and pull the last yarn over through all 4 loops on the hook (2 stitches decreased). Move the marker to the top of this stitch.
DECREASE TIP-2:
Decrease 2 double crochets by working 3 double crochets together:
BEGINNING OF ROW: Work 1 double crochet in the first stitch, then work 3 double crochets together as follows: work 1 double crochet in each of the next 2 stitches, but wait with the last yarn over and pull-through on both these double crochets, work 1 double crochet in the next stitch and pull the last yarn over through all 4 loops on the hook.
END OF ROW:
Work until there are 4 stitches left on the row, work 1 double crochet in each of the next 2 stitches, but wait with the last yarn over and pull-through on both these double crochets, work 1 double crochet in the next stitch and pull the last yarn over through all 4 loops on the hook. Work 1 double crochet in the last stitch.
DECREASE TIP-3:
Decrease 1 double crochet by working 2 double crochets together:
BEGINNING OF ROW: Work 1 double crochet in the first stitch, then work 2 double crochets together as follows: work 1 double crochet in the next stitch but wait with the last yarn over and pull-through, work 1 double crochet in the next stitch and pull the last yarn over through all 3 loops on the hook.
END OF ROW:
Work until there are 3 stitches left on the row, work 1 double crochet in the next stitch but wait with the last yarn over and pull-through, work 1 double crochet in the next stitch and pull the last yarn over through all 3 loops on the hook , work 1 double crochet in the last stitch.

START THE PIECE HERE:
-------------------------------------------------------
BAG ¬– SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:
Start by working 6 squares which are then sewn together in a strip. Continue along the bottom edge of the strip, working down the bag and decreasing for the bottom. The bag is sewn together mid-bottom.
Then work the other side of the band, up to the strap, which is worked on one side and sewn to the other.
SQUARE:
Work 4 chain stitches with hook size 4 MM = US 6 and color off white DROPS Bomull-Lin or DROPS Paris. Form them into a ring with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch.
Work PATTERN in the round – read description above (rounds 1 and 3 are worked in color off white Bomull-Lin or Paris, rounds 2, 4 and 5are worked with color sand Bomull-Lin or color wheat Paris).
Cut and fasten the strands when A.1 is finished. Work 6 squares. Sew the squares together to form a band – sew with color sand/wheat and make sure the beginning of the round on each square faces the same way and towards the seam. Sew the first and last squares together to form a ring.
LOWER SECTION:
Work along the bottom edge of the band with color sand DROPS Bomull-Lin or color wheat DROPS Paris.
Start from the right side with 1 slip stitch around the chain-space in the corner of a square, work 3 chain stitches, then 1 double crochet in each single crochet and 1 double crochet around each chain-space in the corners of the squares = 22 stitches along each square = 132 double crochets and + 3 chain stitches, finish the round with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain stitch at the beginning of the round.
Read CROCHET INFORMATION and work alternately 1 round of single crochets from the wrong side and 1 round of double crochets from the right side (with 1 stitch in each stitch) for 7 cm = 2 3/4", finishing with a round of single crochets from the wrong side.
BOTTOM:
Lay the bag flat, with 3 squares in front and 3 squares behind – insert 1 marker-thread in each side = 66 stitches between the threads.
Insert now 4 markers – each one inserted in a stitch; they are used when decreasing the bottom:
Count 5 stitches out from each side of both marker-threads and insert 1 marker in the 6th stitch (4 markers with 10 stitches between them on the short sides and 54 stitches on the long sides).
Work in the round, back and forth as before, but on each round of double crochets decrease 2 double crochets at each marker – read DECREASE TIP-1 (8 stitches decreased on the round). Decrease like this on each double crochet round 3 more times = 100 stitches. Cut the strand and pull it through the stitch. Lay the bag flat and sew the bottom together, with 1 stitch in each of the 50 stitches, sewing through both layers.
TOP SECTION:
Work around the top edge of the band with hook size 4 MM = US 6 and color sand DROPS Bomull-Lin or color wheat DROPS Paris.
Start from the right side with 1 slip stitch in the seam between 2 squares in the side of the bag, work 3 chain stitches, then 1 double crochet in each single crochet and 1 double crochet around each chain-space in the corners of the squares = 22 stitches along each square = 132 double crochets and + 3 chain stitches, finish the round with 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain stitch at the beginning of the round.
Remember CROCHET INFORMATION and work alternately 1 round of single crochets from the wrong side and 1 round of double crochets from the right side (with 1 stitch in each stitch) for 5 cm = 2", finishing with a round of single crochets from the wrong side.
Now work the side-sections:
Lay the bag flat and insert 1 marker in each side = 66 stitches between the markers.
You do not work the middle 32 stitches on the front and back of the bag; work only the 34 stitches on each side (the markers sit in the middle of these 34 stitches). Cut the strand.
SIDE-SECTION 1:
Start 17 stitches before the marker on one side of the bag, using color sand/wheat, and work 1 double crochet in each of the next 34 stitches – AT THE SAME TIME decrease 2 double crochets on each side – read DECREASE TIP-2.
Continue back and forth with 1 row single crochets from the wrong side and 1 row double crochets from the right side and decrease 2 double crochets on each row of double crochets 4 more times each side. Then decrease 1 double crochet on each row of double crochets 3 times on each side – read DECREASE TIP-3 = 8 stitches. Cut and fasten the strand.
SIDE-SECTION 2:
Work in the same way as the first side-section. When finished, do not cut the strand. Insert 1 marker in the row and continue back and forth with alternate rows of single and double crochets until the strap measures 50 cm = 19 3/4" from the marker (or to desired length). Sew the strap to the other side of the bag, with 1 stitch in each of the 8 stitches.

Bonjour, pour le bas du sac, si un rang est fait à l'endroit et un sur l'envers, il va donc falloir faire une couture ou est-ce que je peux crocheter le long de la bande en rond ? Merci de votre réponse

Bonjour Angélique, vous pouvez, mais on crochète ici en allers et retours en joignant à la fin de chaque tour pour crocheter alternativement sur l'endroit (brides) et sur l'envers (mailles serrées), si vous restez toujours sur l'endroit, le visuel sera automatiquement différent - vous n'aurez pas de couture car vous terminez chaque rang/tour par 1 maille coulée - cf INFO CROCHET. Bon crochet!

Hei Marie. Beklager, men en slik tjeneste har vi ikke. Men noe nettbutikker (muligens vanlige butikker) kan du få bestilt / skrevet ut oppskriften når du kjøper garn. mvh DROPS Design
