This Bag is worked in the round upward beginning from the base. Colors are changed using the tapestry method. Hold all colors together each round, changing colors where indicated. Crochet over the colors not being used. When switching from one color to another, work the last pull through with the new color. When working over multiple strands of yarn, you will need to gently tug the three nonworking strands frequently to keep them tidy and not visible.
