          \n\n\n\n

          \ud83e\uddf5 Step 1: Crochet the Bag Body<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          We\u2019ll create two identical panels<\/strong> (front and back), then seam them together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Option A: Simple Puffy Stitch Panel<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

          Use bobble stitch<\/strong> or puff stitch<\/strong> for a textured, cloud-like look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Repeat Rows 2\u20133, alternating, until you reach desired height (about 10\u201312 inches).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Tip<\/strong>: Use stripes of color every few rows for a \u201csunny sky\u201d gradient effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Use various colors to create a garden of mini flowers to sew onto the bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Or: Make Flower Granny Squares<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

                    Create multiple squares with a flower center and join them to form a bag panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
