  Step 1

  This gurl loves bags and crochet.

  I recently spied a Free People bag but the price tag was a bit rich so I decided to make my own.

  I used the crochet grocery bag pattern found here http://www.knitomatic.com/patterns.htm and added a few more rows to the body and strap.

  I'm loving the ombre' dying technique lately and decided to use it on the bag.

  Step 2

  I dug around my stash for some bits of lace, studs, bling and added them to the strap along with a hot pink pom pom.

  Step 3

  I purchased some sequin lining from JoAnn's. I only need a 1/2 yard, so the cost was about $3.00.

  Step 4

  Diggin' it!

I spotted that bag and gushed over it on Free People as well and have been planning to crochet one as soon as other projects lighten up. I enjoy seeing someone else have the same idea and save over $90.
Did you dip dye it after crocheting it?

Yes. That's the easiest route.
