- Chain 1, then crochet 1 half double crochet into the next stitch.
- Repeat the pattern of [half double crochet + chain 1] for each stitch.
- At the end of the row, you will have 10 half double crochets and 9 chain spaces.
Step 3: Creating Double-Crochet Clusters
- Turn the work. Insert the hook into the first chain space (from the previous row).
- Slip stitch to join and chain 2 (this chain is considered a half double crochet).

- Skip the next space and repeat [2 double crochets + chain 1 + 2 double crochets] into the next available space.
- Continue this pattern across the row and complete the last stitch with 1 half double crochet.
Step 4: Forming Petals
- Turn the work and begin with the first chain space.
- Work 5 double crochets into the chain space, with 1 chain space between each stitch.
- Repeat this pattern in each of the "V-shaped" chain spaces across the row.
- At the end of the row, finish with 4 double crochets in the last space, and crochet the final double crochet into the corner stitch.
- Hide the yarn tails and cut the yarn, leaving enough for sewing.

- For this bag, complete 16 rows of double crochet.
Part 3: Assembling the Bag
Step 1: Sewing the Top to the Body
