This pattern includes instructions on how to make the mementos mini bag, a square-shaped drawstring bag with adjustable straps. There are four body panel designs to choose from: yin yang, heart, checkered, and gingham.

Adjustable strap technique is inspired & taken (with permission) from Magdalena (ig @mermaidsyarns_backup)’s Halina bag pattern. You can find her bag pattern at https://tinyurl.com/3eevhebr. ♡

Notes:

• Language: English
• Terminology: US
• Level of difficulty: Advanced beginner to intermediate. You will need to know how to crochet colorwork and how to read a graphghan.

Materials:

• Aran/worsted/medium (size 4) weight yarn. For reference, I used Sugar ‘n Cream yarn in the colors sage and jute. The fuchsia color is recycled yarn from an old sweater. You’ll need a total of about 500m of yarn (I used 200m each of two colors and 100m of one color). Leftover yarn from past projects would work well for a small project like this. (:
• 4mm crochet hook (or any hook that meets the gauge with your tension; gauge is provided within the pattern)
• Measuring tool (e.g., ruler, tape measurer)
• Scissors & yarn needle
• Stitch markers

You may sell bags made from this pattern. However, you must contact me before doing so.

• I would love to share your work on my page as it brings me insurmountable joy that someone has made a bag using this pattern. ♡
• It is only fair that credit goes where credit is due. This is not gatekeeping. It is respecting and recognizing the work a creative has put into creating a pattern. Because you have bought this pattern does not make it yours nor does it mean you should treat the design as if it is yours.

Lastly, I’d like to extend thanks to my testers: AG (@ajgcrochet), Fren (@furenchuu.crochet), Isabel (@theeknottystitch), Kayly (@familiardreamstate), Lea (@crochetwithlea), Megan (@frogghorl), Nadia (@iam.lanka), Phoebe (@mochimicrochets), Qiah (@kaitkatn), Shenny (@wobbleblobbe), Xenia (@xallua), ♡
