Auntie Nat's Crochet (Free Crochet Pattern)

 This is a simple dinner bag made using p olypropylene yarn. You can also use nylon or cotton yarn too, if you wish. I added a plastic canvas and covered it with linen inside. It is a simple hand carry dinner bag. You can make it bigger or smaller so long the rule is the number or foundation chain is in the multiple of 4 plus 3. The tutorial video : Make a foundation chain up to the length that you want, which has to be in a multiple of 4 and then add 3 more chain. I did chain 28 plus 3. Then yarn over and do a double crochet on the 5th chain from hook. Yarn over into the space created with the double crochet. Yarn over 3 times and leave it on the hook, pull thru all to create one bean stitch.  Skip one stitch from the foundation chain and yarn over and do another double crochet. Do another double crochet on the next stitch. Do a bean stitch inside the space between the 2 double crochet. Continue the same manner until the end.  For a new row, chain 3 and turn and do the s...

 This is a bunny with flat ears. If you do not want to change colour, you can just follow the written pattern and make a one colour bunny with flat ears.

 This beret has 3-D leaf on it but because I used 3 colour yarn, it is not so obvious. If you use just one colour yarn, it would look obvious. It is very easy to do and it is all about back post and front post.  The tutorial video. I used cotton yarn and a 4.5 mm hook. Start by making a magic ring. Chain 3 (this will count as a double crochet (dc)) and do a double crochet (dc). Then chain 1 and make a 2nd dc inside the ring. This 2 dc and chain 1 is one set. I made 6 sets all together. One set for one leaf. If you decided to make only 5 leaf, then do 5 sets. End with a slip stitch to the next stitch. Row 2 - Do one more slip stitch so that we start on the chain 1 space. Chain 3 (count as a dc) and chain 1 (for space), do a dc. Do a back post on the following 2 dc chain. So there is an increase on the leave part (we are building the leaf on the chain 1 space) but the back post part, no increase. End with a slip stitch to the top of the chain 3. Row 3 - Do a front post on the fo...
