Dog owners know how important it is to carry plastic bags at all time. Now
you can pick up after your dog and look good with this Crochet Dog Doo Doo
Bag Holder. Simple crochet patterns don't get more handy or versatile than
this. Since you only need one color of yarn, this is a great way to practice
basic stitches. If you're new to the world of crochet or just want to make
something really quick, you can't go wrong with free easy crochet patterns.
If you're about to bring home a new furry friend or know someone who is,
this is a great gift idea.

Crochet Hook: G/6 or 4 mm hook

Primary Technique: Crochet 

Yarn Weight: (4) Medium Weight/Worsted Weight and Aran (16-20 stitches to 4
inches) 

Easy

Materials:

*	Size G hook
*	WW yarn
*	Small elastic hair tie
*	Button
*	Darning needle

 

Instructions:

Round 1: ch 3 (with the starting loop over the elastic), 20 dc around the
elastic band. Sl st to top of ch 3.
Round 2: ch 3, dc in the back loop of each dc. join with a sl st.
Round 3-6 (or however big you want it): ch 3. dc around. join with sl st.
To Finish: sc 2 together around until it is closed. That is just the method
I used. You can close it off like you could a hat as an option.
Handle: ch 7. dc across. join with sl st to top of bag, wherever you prefer.
keep dc  until desired length. I added a dog bone button and the space
between the dc was enough of a button hole for it!

 

If you want to place this around your waist, instead of the handle
directions, crochet length around your waist with half crocheted on one side
and half on oppisit side. Add a velco closure and you are ready to go. For
this waist band use about 3 rows around to secure it around you.
