Bit's and bobs to decorate the bag were from my stash.

Steps (4 steps, 120 minutes)

  1. 1

    This gurl loves bags and crochet.

    I recently spied a Free People bag but the price tag was a bit rich so I decided to make my own.

    I used the crochet grocery bag pattern found here http://www.knitomatic.com/patterns.htm and added a few more rows to the body and strap.

    I'm loving the ombre' dying technique lately and decided to use it on the bag.

  2. 2

    I dug around my stash for some bits of lace, studs, bling and added them to the strap along with a hot pink pom pom.

  3. 3

    I purchased some sequin lining from JoAnn's. I only need a 1/2 yard, so the cost was about $3.00.

    Diggin' it!
