Santa Shay Cosmetic Bag Or Hook Pouch

"How to crochet a cute and easy Christmas themed single crochet bag perfect for Christmas shopping or a night out on the town, or if you're like me, holding your crochet supplies! I recommend cotton yarn for this bag as it will see a lot of wear, especially if place inside a larger bag. If you want to line your bag, you'll also need materials for that - I used a pre-made bag, and stuck it inside my crocheted bag - it measured 9" wide by 6" tall. For reference, I had my bag ready to go in about an hour and a hour."
