Static Stitch Bag Holder
Designed by Julie A Bolduc
This bag holder is fairly fast to make. I used the static stitch done in the round. This is done differently, you are going to turn at the end of each round to make it look like you crocheted it back and forth in rows.

Yarn Thickness: 4mm

RND 42: Ch1. Join 5" ring to this last round by working 1 sc in each st around working over the ring as you work each stitch. When you get to the last 3 stitches, work over the plastic .75" ring as well to use as a hanger.
Make sure the last round is on the outside. If needed, turn work inside out. Because you turned after each round, this bag holder's fabric is reversible so it looks the same no matter which side is out. Weave all ends into work. Hang your bag holder up using your little .75" plastic ring.

Filling Easter BasketsEvery Year my kids use the same Easter Baskets. They set them out on the Dining Table and the Easter Bunny fills them up in the middle of the night with all sorts of Easter Goodies. It's was a tradition that we had been doing since my kids were really little. They really looked forward to finding out what can fit into it.
