Crochet Mini Gift Bag

Hi friends,

Is it hot where you are? We are sizzlin’ here in Alabama!! But of course it is July so…

☀️🔥🥵

I’ve got another Christmas in July post for you today. These cute Mini Gift Bags are perfect for gift cards or cash – with a little extra room for some yummy chocolates! 🍫 They measure about 4.25 by 4.25 inches not including the handle, so they are also great for small gifts. 🎁

Here’s the pattern for making these fun little gift bags. They work up super fast using worsted weight (4) yarn and an H/5mm hook. I used Yarn Bee Soft & Sleek yarn in White, Red, Kale, and Mustard to stitch up my bags – any worsted weight (4) yarn will work.
