| Set up | Start with Green. Since the dc on Round 19 is crocheted on back posts only, you would find the front posts of Round 18 obviously shown on the front side of the crocheted piece. Working on those 24 posts to crochet 6 leaves. | |

| The Strap for Wearing the Bag | ||
| Crochet a strap for wearing the bag by sc. I crochet the string to 30inches. Feel free to adjust the length for your preference . | ||
| Use a mark or safety pin to mark where your want to connect the string onto the bag. Connect the string to the bag by sc and slst. | ||
| String for closing and opening the bag | ||
| Crochet a 20inces long string by sc. Of course, You may want a longer or shorter string. Test to find the exact length you need before cutting off the yarn | ||
| Strawberry Seed | ||
| Embroider seeds on the strawberry with white yarn. | ||
| Suggestion 😛 each see on the next round should be in between of the 2 seeds on previous round. | ||
| DONE! |
