Om shanti yoga mat bag

This bag is really just a never ending granny circle. It is a fast crochet, but with a lot of ends to weave in. We recommend you do it as you go.

Materials: 5 mm crochet needle and Heavy Cotton from Stoff og Stil

We like to start with an adjustable ring, but if you feel that is too complicated just chain five and make a ring.

Round 1: Chain 3 and make 15 dc in the ring.

Round 2: Chain 1 and dc in the same stitch. *ch2, skip next stitch, sc 1* You now have 8 spaces.

Runde 3: Chain 3. Dc twise in the first space. *Chain 2 and make 3 dc in the next space* Sl st tog.

Runde 4: Chain 3. Make 3 dc in the first space. *Chain 2 and make 4 dc in the next space* Sl st tog.

Repeat last round until your bag is the required lenght.

Finishing rounds:

Round 1: Sc in each stitch

Round 2: 1 sc in each of the 2 first stitches. *Chain 2, skip 2 stitches, 1 sc in each of the 2 next stitches*

Runde 3: Sc in each stitch. You have 12 holes.

Knit an icord long enough to go round the top and down on both sides. It´s done in no time with one of these.

Thread the cord, start from the outside so both ends hang out. Then thread them into the bag over the 4th round (in the bottom) and sew them to the first round. That way your bag will hang nicely and not stretch when used.
