The Crochet Pie Bag Pattern is a charming and cute design for crocheting enthusiasts who want to make a little decorative bag that looks like a slice of pie.
Crochet Pie Bag Pattern
You use simple crochet stitches to create the round pie base and the crimped edge that resemble the crust of a pie. There's also a part that looks like the yummy filling, and you can add a lattice pattern on top, just like on a real pie, with criss-crossed yarn.
You attach a strap to one side, so you can hang it up as a decoration or use it as a keychain. It's fun to pick different colors of yarn for different flavors of pie, like red for cherry or yellow for lemon. This pattern is great for beginners because it's small and doesn't take too long to make.
