I made this using lace yarn. Please don't run off yet - it's easy! You'll be using a larger hook, and it won't take you forever to make this. If lace yarn is not your cup of tea, but you still like the pattern, yarn substitution is also possible.😉

Working with lace yarn can be tricky because they're so small you can hardly see the stitches, and it takes patience to finish large projects. But I think projects made with lace yarn can look very elegant and cute at the same time. 

I wanted to use lace yarn differently to give it a new look and feel. The result is this drawstring bag. I combined several strands of different colors to mimic larger, unplied variegated yarn. The idea of crocheting multiple strands of yarn together used to scare me off, but it is surprisingly easy if you use the appropriate hook size.

Below, you will find the video tutorial for this crochet drawstring bag, the materials needed, the stitches used, and the gauge.
