Please give him an extra hug for me. Thank you.

I wanted to let you know what I was taught to do for a crocheted ripple afghan.

Add additional 4 stitches at each side.

Crochet 1 sc under each of the 3 V’s – skip 1 st and then crochet up the point, etc. At the end of the row, skip the first V and 1 sc under the next 3 sts.

It gives a very nice edge – I’ve done at least a dozen afghans this way.

Sophie –

The finished bag measures approximately 15″x17″. Other fabrics would be just fine. If you want something heavy duty, I suggest canvas or denim. You could even use decorator fabrics if you really wanted to. I wouldn’t think you’d need to make any adjustments to use thicker fabrics. Your bag may just turn out a smidge smaller due to seam allowances. You can always add an inch or two to each side if you want your bag larger.

Hi! Thanks so much for this tutorial! Can you please tell me, how big is the finished bag? Also should I make any adjustments if I use a thicker fabric? What would those be? What fabric would you recommend other than quilting cotton? Thanks so much!

I am going to try this recipe. My friend told me about the liquid version and I bought the ingredients to make it but I think I’ll try this one first, it looks and sounds easier.

The full yard will make two bags. I cut all the handles at once when I do mine and that picture shows the handles for two bags. Sorry for any confusion.

Hi,
I love the tutorial but if there are only two handles what are the other two 4 inch strips to be used for?

I admit I was very curious when my brain auto corrected that to baby armidillo. Despite being very different from that mental image it is lovely
