Pattern Details

Skill Level

These Easter treat bags are easy and beginner-friendly.

Size

The pattern creates a bag that is approx. 5.5” high and 3.5” wide (at the top). Instructions for making the bag larger are included at the end of the pattern.

Materials

Yarn: Any size 4 (medium) yarn. For each bag, you will need approx. 20 yds of orange yarn and 20 yds of green yarn. 

I used Impeccable yarn by Loops & Threads in the colors: “Pumpkin” (orange) and “Forest” (green). This yarn is size 4 (medium) and 100% acrylic. A skein is 285 yds / 260 m and 4.5 oz / 127.5 g.

Crochet Hook Size: G/7 (4.50 mm). 

Other Materials: Yarn needle, scissors and a measuring tape. Optional: a stitch marker.

Terminology

This pattern is written for right-handed crochet using standard US terminology. If you’re more familiar with UK terms, here’s my US to UK Conversion Chart. 

Abbreviations

• approx. = approximately
• ch/chs = chain/chains
• dc = double crochet
• hdc = half double crochet
• sc = single crochet 
• sl st = slip stitch
• sk = skip
• st/sts = stitch/stitches

Gauge

Exact sizing is not important. For reference, after Round 7, work should measure 2.5” high and 2.25” wide (at the top). 

Pattern Notes

• Never turn at the start of a round.
• Chains never count as stitches.
• The slip stitch that joins the round never gets worked into or counted as a stitch.
• You may find it helpful to place a stitch marker in the first stitch made in every round.
