Hang out this summer in style with a Boardwalk Bag! Perfect “grab and go” bag for the beach or for a late night walk. This non-lined design is suitable for your wallet & sunglasses without the bulkiness of carrying a full purse.

Links to 2 youtube videos are provided to help with special rounds/adding handles.

Finished Size:
Approx: 12’’ x 10.5’’ (tension may change the overall size as well as yarn choice!)

Skill Level:
Intermediate

Materials Needed:
Light (3) weight yarn, cotton/polyester recommended - approx. 300-320 yards.
(I used The Lion Brand - Flikka in the color Dill Pickle & Confetti in my examples. This yarn is 50% cotton/50% polyester.)
Using any weight yarn will work, but it will change the size of the finished bag
Crochet Hook: I (5.5mm)
Handles of your choosing for your finished bag
(I found mine at Joann for about $7.00, Amazon also has a ton!)
