What you have to do is go back, yo, pull up a loop from the front (working backwards) & work your dc over the 3 you already did. Let me know if you still don't understand & I will try to explain it better. Basically you are making an X over the stitches you already did.

Howdy! I'm wondering if ya'll could help me out. I'm working on a gift and I decided that the patten Handicrafter Cotton - Market Bag (crochet) would be quite a great gift (I love to do useful and practical gifts). My problem is that I'm looking through the pattern and all I'm seeing is a panel, and no real instructions on how to assemble anything into a bag. Now I've done market totes and similar such bags before and those are usually worked in a circular manner, but this pattern is fairly frustrating to me. And it's such a pretty bag that I'm hoping that I'm just missing something somewhere.

Thanks in advance for your time!

To SnowcloudSilver

Join Panels: Arrange Panels to form a box, having Side Panels opposite each other.
With WS of 2 Panels tog, join 2 strands of yarn with sl st at top left corner. Ch
1. Working through both thicknesses, work 1 row of sc evenly along side edge. Fasten off.
Rep for rem Panels.

Base: Work from ** to ** as given for Front and Back Panels.
Rep last row until work from beg measures 12 ins [30.5 cm], ending with a WS row. Do not fasten off.

Join Base to Panels: With RS of Base facing, place lower edge of joined Panels behind Base with WS of work tog, aligning corners of Base with joining rows of Panels.
Next rnd: Ch 1. Working through both thicknesses, work 1 rnd of sc evenly around all 4 sides of Base. Join with sl st in first sc. Fasten off.

The pattern I found for the bag on the Bernat website has the above instructions for joining the panels into a bag.


Here is the link for the full instructions I found http://www.bernat.com/pattern.php?PID=3839&cps=99999944

Hope this helps

Hmm, that's a different pattern.

This is the pattern I was looking at: http://www.bernat.com/pattern.php?PID=4592

I wonder if that would work the same way though for this bag...?

Thanks,

No, that is a different bag completely. But, it does look like you just work the rows & you don't join it...it will be joined when you get to the top...and the crochet the handles on. All I can suggest is just to follow the pattern very carefully & I think it will turn out fine. Let me know how it goes

I looked again & you just work it from one side to the other...the handles keep it closed...there is no joining. You can see it if you look at the picture closely.

Thank you. I'll just keep working at it and see how it turns out.
