Stripes and tassels are the perfect combination for a crochet summer bag in the JoJo Bag. Worked in side-to-side ribbing gives a knit look and surface slip stitches cut down on excessive stretching. Made using Brava™, the color choices are plentiful and you won’t have to worry about spills with this easy care yarn. Watch this crochet bag fly off your hook and into your next outing.

The bag is worked in one piece from side to side. Single crochet ridges on the panel’s short edges give the bag its tapered shape. Assembly is simple, just seam the sides, add an eyelet band and border to the top edge, then attach the slip-stitched strap.
