Crochet Mini Carrot Treat BagBy Anita Young at creatingme.net

Worsted weight yarn in orange and green

H/5mm hook

Stitches used - (US terms):▪ Chain - ch▪ Single crochet - sc▪ Double crochet - dc▪ Slip stitch - ss

Note: chain 2 does not count as a stitch

Tip: At the beginning of each round, I worked a slip stitch into the next stitch before chaining 2. By doing this, it helps to keep the seam from going wonky and really helps to hide the seam. The first picture is without the slip stitch, the second is with it.

Rnd 1: Using Orange, begin with a magic ring. Ch 2, dc 6 times in ring. Join with a ss to first dc. Pull magic ring closed.

Rnd 2: ss into next dc, ch 2. Work 2 dc in same stitch, dc in next stitch. *2 dc in next stitch, 1 dc in next stitch* twice and join with ss to first dc of rnd. (9 stitches)
