I am normally a bit hesitant about crocheting a bag. In order to make it heavy-duty (and I don't see how I can survive with non-heavy-duty bags), I would need to make a lining. I will try it one day, but so far, the prospect of crocheting a bag, making a lining, and putting them together overwhelms me.
A bag for just one bottle, though, doesn't have to be lined! I was a bit nervous the first time I used it, as I kept imagining the bag falling apart and the bottle of rum falling and breaking on the street and covering me in glass shards and rum.... Well, the bag survived and now I am more comfortable using it.
Multi-colored yarn is the best way to make a simple project look so much more complicated. This one is crocheted in non-continuous rounds. Once the body of the bag was long enough, I continued crocheting to make the handle and stitched up the end to complete it. Using double or treble stitches make this kind of project really quick!
I found this cotton yarn in Mouliné Fils De Qualité.
