Rustic Sunflower Granny Square
Recently I was designing the Rustic Granny Sunflower Square crochet pattern and tested the pattern with different yarns to see which yarn I liked best for this project.

Using a handle other than a round bamboo handle really gives the bag a different look as well. I have seen fat bottom bags crocheted in a rectangular shape. These bags are wider and not as deep and…
