    INSTRUCTIONS:

    NOTE: This pattern is worked in a spiral, with no join at the end of each round. Use a stitch marker to mark the first stitch of each round to help you keep your place.

    Rnd 1: With Color A, make a magic circle, ch 1, sc 6 in the ring. (6 sts)

    Rnd 2: Work 2 sc in each st around. (12 sts)

    Rnd 3: *Sc in the next st, 2 sc in the next st; repeat from * around. (18 sts)

    Rnd 4: *Sc in the next 2 sts, 2 sc in the next st; repeat from * around. (24 sts)

    Break for Cross-Stitch Section: 

    Remove hook from active loop and place stitch marker in loop to save place. Working opposite of the active loop, use yarn needle to cross-stitch the heart with Color B onto the fabric of the bag, starting with the bottom stitch in Rnd 7, and ending with the last row in Rnd 11. If needed, find more info on cross-stitching HERE. (Moogly tutorial coming soon!)

      MOOGLY:
      Please need info RE: X my heart treat bag---Am having a problem--even with beg sc in Rnd 3 ; I still get too many sts. Common sense dictates that 2 in ea. sc will give you double the amount. Yes, am a repeating beginner, but do know how to multiply. (as most of current generation does not know how without their phone, calc., or computer. I am not a soc. media addict, either. 🙂 Thank you, Betty
      Is there not another way to reach you for questions re: patterns--could not find a return or email address?

        Hello BLB! You can comment here, or you can use the Contact Me button at the top of the site which will send it to email. I'm not typically online on the weekends though, I try to set aside time for family and actual crocheting on the weekends. Gotta design all these patterns sometime! 🙂

        So it sounds like you are getting 12 sc in Round 2, just not hitting the target for Round 3? In Round 3, the instructions read: *Sc in the next st, 2 sc in the next st; repeat from * around. (18 sts)
        This means you crochet 1 sc in the first st, 2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in the next st, 2 sc in the next st, etc on around. So when you look at the 12 sts in Rnd 2, you'll work increases in every other stitch - 6 total, for 6 additional stitches, and a total of 18. Does that make sense?

      Hi, Thanks for the pattern; I wrote it on a piece of paper and Titled it Valentine Bag. Is that okay with you. These bags will be great gift bags for jewelry items for others for Birthdays and Holidays. Thanks so much ! Viv
