This Water Bottle Bag is crocheted from the bottom up. The Base is worked in continuous rounds. The body is worked in joined, turned rounds from the bottom up. When changing colors, work up to the final step in the old color, and work the final pull-through with the new color. Hold both colors throughout each round, changing colors where indicated. Do not crochet over the strands as in tapestry crochet. Hold unused strands to the wrong side of the work.
