Sweet Treats School Bag Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Sweet Treats School Bag 

Crochet Pattern 

By Sara Sach Posh Pooch Designs

This Bag was  call The Sweet Treats Beach Bag.

I designed This Crochet Pattern June of 2014.

 We decided to give this crochet pattern a new name, 

Sweet Treats School bag. We also retested and up dated

 the pattern with new pictures and a brand new Video.

We changed the name because it's a perfect back to school

 bag for kids and adults, although it's still great for the beach,

 A project bag and for anything you want to use it for.

The pattern has been updated with new yarn, as well.

 We chose to use 3 colorways of Cotton Sprout by

 Premier Yarn. Lime, Turquoise, And island Breeze.

It is a med (4) weight cotton yarn. So it strong and

 durable, yet soft and beautiful.

See All The colorways at This LINK

And click the Yarn tab

The pattern is easy and stitches up quickly, so you will have

 plenty of time to stitch it up for school.

It has a love wave pattern that makes the colors flow, 

so it's as pretty as it is useful. It even has a pocket for 

your phone.
