Bag consists of separate fragments (motifs), each individual thread is knitted. Generally, the reasons may be different forms, but it is more convenient to collect them in the web, if they have the correct geometrical shape. Most motifs crochet from the center and often finished in rows in a circle. Initial ring is sometimes called near zero, so it is not included in the series run. Form motif bound from the center, it depends on the location of increases in each row.

We will knit a bag hook of hexagonal motifs, called "African Flower". 

For knitting handbags use a sufficiently thick cotton yarn. Hook choose depending on the thickness of the yarn. The author -. The hook number 4,5 

Each motif is knitted from yarns of four colors. 

In total it will be necessary to link 12 such motives. With their knitting, you can alternate the colors to your liking. However, the last series in all the motives to be knit yarn of one color (from the author - green). 

When all 12 motifs related, they begin to sew. There are many ways to connect motives. Some of them can be found here: 

. Connecting hook motifs

in this master class motives author connects with a needle. 

Putting related motives in the cylinder. Then we proceed to the bottom of the knitting bag. 

1st row: color yarn - the one that prevails in the motives. Author knits the yarn number of pink. 1 tbsp. b \ n in each loop and 1 tbsp. b \ n in the area between the two motifs (ie, the connection point of motives). 

2 series: it fits the same color as the last row of each of the motifs (green). 

1 tbsp. b \ n in each loop of the previous row. 

3rd row: with this series begin aligning the angles formed by the combination of motives. Knitting in pink. We begin to knit from the top of the first hexagon. [4 tbsp. b \ n 3 polustolbika one nakida, 2 column with nakida, 3 column with nakida knit together with nakida 2 column, 3 polustolbika one nakida, 4 tbsp. b \ n] - repeat for each flower. 

Row 4: [5 bars without nakida 3 polustolbika one nakida, 3 column with nakida 3 polustolbika one nakida, 5 bars without nakida] - repeat for each motif. 

Now, the edge looks more even. 

row 5: 1 tbsp. b \ n in each loop of the previous row. 

6 series: changing yarn color to pink. 1 tbsp. b \ n in each loop of the previous row. 

7 row: knit in green again. 1 tbsp. b \ n in each loop of the previous row. 

8 sequence: 1 tbsp. b \ n in each loop of the previous row. 

Now proceed to the top of the knitting bag. It fit just as well as the lower part, but for a different color scheme: 

1 series: green (one who knit the last row of each motif). 

2-5 series: pink color. 

6 series: green. 

7 series: pink. 

So, we just repeat knitting the bottom of her purse, but from above. But here we will have to be done with a strip of holes where to insert the string to bag closed. 

Take the yarn, the color of which is different from those that you mated before (from the author - violet). 

8 sequence: 1 tbsp. . b \ n in each loop of the previous row 

Row 9: [2 column with nakida, 2 air loop, two loops are missing] - repeat to end of row. 

10 number: Art. b \ n in each loop, 2 tbsp. . b \ n in the chain of 2 air loop of the previous row 

11 series: pink color knit 1 st. b \ n in each loop of the previous row. 

12 number: change the color to green yarn: 1 tbsp. . b \ n in each loop of the previous row 

13 row: knit 1 tbsp pink. b \ n in each loop of the previous row. 

Finish knitting. 

We have tied up most of the bags. Now we proceed to knitting the bottom. 

Bottom Knitting for bags.

Type in a chain of 4 stitches and lock it to the ring. 

Bag hook of the motives

1st row: 9 polustolbikov with nakida. 

2 series: gain in each loop (18 loops). 

3rd row: [gain, column without nakida] - repeated 9 times (27 loops). 

Row 4: [gain, 2 column without nakida] - repeated 9 times (36 loops). 

row 5:. [gain, 3 column without nakida] - repeated 9 times (45 loops) 

thus increases in each row the number of cores without nakida by 1. in the 6th row - gain, 4 column without nakida to the end of the series, etc. 

11 series [increase, 9 columns without nakida] - repeat to end of row. Finish knitting. 

Now you need to sew the bottom of the cylinder of the motives. By the way, why not attach to the bottom of the bag by means of columns without nakida? :) But the author sews the bottom of it. 

Let's make string to pull the top of the bag. 

Enter a sufficiently long chain of air loops. It should be at least two longer than the width of the bag. At the ends of the cord to tie the knots. 

Knitting handles for bags.

Using green yarn. 

Dial a chain of air loops. Chain length is determined by the desired length of the handle. 

1 row: knit without nakida column in the third loop from the hook. Then knit without nakida column in each loop of the previous row. At the ends of the chain knit 4 nakida column without a single point, forming thus rounding. 

2 series: also knit a column without nakida in each loop of the previous row. At the end: boost, 1 bar without nakida, gain 2, column without nakida, gain. 

3rd row: column without nakida in each loop of the previous row. At the ends:. 4 allowances 

In order to make handles for bags easier, bend them in half and sew by first placing the strip into the fabric. 

Sew on the handle to the bag. 

Bag is almost ready. It remains only to make a lining. Unfortunately, the author does not give a pattern lining. But not difficult to guess that this bag with round bottom, slightly less than the size of the bag. By the way, do not forget to sew a pocket! :) 

Carefully sew the lining to the bag.

Bag ready!
