Part 1 Back Piece

The back piece is worked using the magic ring technique, crocheting in rounds counterclockwise outward from the magic ring. Rounds 1-3 are crocheted with the main color yarn. Starting from round 4, change colors according to the color chart for each motif, using a total of five different colors.

Part 2 Front Piece

The front piece is also worked using the magic ring method, crocheting in rounds counterclockwise from the center outward. Rows 9-10, the crochet technique for the three butterfly sections is slightly different from the back piece, but the rest of the stitches are the same as the back piece.

Part 3 Bag Body

Cast on 12 chain stitches and follow the pattern chart. Start changing colors from row 14.

Part 4  Sewing Together

Sew the mesh piece to the bag body together.

Part 5  Edging

Crochet the edging with the body of the bag at the front and the strap at the back.
