ZODIAC BAGS COLLECTION

English Only. No Translations to Other Languages. Crochet Diagram and Videos. No Written Pattern. US crochet terms used.

This pattern bundle includes 12 bag variations that share the same core design but each have two unique filet crochet zodiac sign images on both sides of the bag.
The bag is worked from the bottom up in the round with integrated handles. The only "seam" is a short join across the handle done entirely with crochet hook. The first 5 rounds and the top part of the bag is crocheted exactly the same way for all 12 bag variations.  

Currently, 4 out of 12 zodiac bag designs have real life images / photographs of finished bags available: Leo, Virgo, Capricorn and Pisces.  The other 8 out 12 zodiac designs have complete technical design / diagrams.  

Make a perfect, handmade crochet tote for your friends and family!  Give it as a birthday gift or as a Christmas present!   Skip the generic store-bought gifts and make something truly personal!  You can crochet your way through your entire family’s birthdays with this bag collection!

Finished dimensions of the main body: 14″ W × 15″ H (36 cm W × 38 cm H).

Skill Level: Adventurous Beginner-friendly.   Best to have done at least one filet crochet project prior. 

Visual Support:  A combination of photo and video tutorial will guide you through the trickiest parts that are the same for all 12 zodiac sign bags (the beginning rounds, top shaping, handles, and final finishing).
