French Market Bag from Two of Wands

  So I won a contest when taking a survey.  As the winner, I was given the chance to pick one item from an online store.  I picked a sea green market bag, and I was really excited about it.  Unfortunately, the product sold out before my order was fulfilled, and I was left without a market bag.  Luckily, I came across Two of Wand's French Market Bag , and all of my dreams came true!  The pattern is available for FREE on her blog !  I am sure I will be making more of this, this bag can hold almost anything and I love it! I used  RED HEART Super Saver Yarn, Minty, E300.0520 . Update: Tuesday, December 29, 2020, 8:41 PM I made this again using some Michael's brand yarn, it was what was leftover from making my  Another Tablet Stand Pillow . Update: Wednesday, January 6, 2021, 3:04 PM I made this again, this time using Joann's Big Twist Value Worsted Yarn in Dark Denim .  This yarn is super soft and when it's on sale it's a crazy goo...

Another Tablet Stand Pillow

  This is basically the same pattern as  A Batty Tablet Stand Pillow , but this one is a solid color and a bit bigger in order to accommodate a 12" iPad Pro. For more images, please see that post. You will need: Less than a skein of  Worsted Weight Yarn , I used a blue from a Michael's brand Stitch Marker Tapestry needle  (for weaving in ends) Poly-fill A crochet hook a little smaller than what your yarn recommends. I used a  4mm Crochet Hook   NOTE:  I put the size for the standard tablet stand in parenthesis.   First, I started with the bottom that is actually the stand. Row 1: Ch  68 (58) and starting from the 2nd ch from the hook, 1 sc in each ch (67sts). Now, continue on the backside of the chains around, and join. Use a stitch marker to know when the row is done going forward. Row 2-12 (2-10): 1 sc in each st around. Row 13 (11): stop here and stuff with poly-fill well. I stuffed this more than I would normally to make it a little ...
