A great beginning crochet project, this bag is also eco-friendly. We love the variegated colorways offered in the hemp from Ecolution. Hemp is a different, slightly stiffer fiber which is great to work with one you get used to it. The pattern and its dimensions may vary slightly according the weight of the hemp fiber. Finished project washes great and stands up to hard wear. You will also need a size I crochet hook for this project.
