I was hoping to get permission from you to use your pattern Dot's Little Ditty Bag for a crocheting class I teach to young children. It is adorable and easy to make. I hope you agree. Thank you, Debra |

Hi Stacy, thank you. Glad you like this pattern. You're bag sounds really cute in two tones. I don't know if I'll have any bag patterns, but if I do, I'll be sure to post them here. |

I just now finished this tonight. What a great pattern! I used a thicker yarn, ended up running out, so, I finished the last 6 rounds in a different color! I think it turned out good. Can't wait to see other bag patterns you have!!! Thank you! |

I'm glad you like this Mary. I used single strands for the bag. It will look great in different colors. This is the only bag pattern I have, but with luck, it won't be my last one. You take care, and keep on hookin'. |

I want to make one of these tonight. Did you use singleyarn or did you double the yarn? I think they will be fun to have in different colors. Do you have anyother bag or purse patterns?
