Starting at center with L, ch 4, sl st in 1st ch, forming a ring. Rnd 1—12 sc in ring. Drop L loop, attach D in 1st sc of rnd 1. Hereafter work in back loop only of each sc on every rnd. Rnd 2—With D make sc in same place as joining, * 2 sc in next sc, sc in next sc. Repeat from * around (18 sts). Drop D loop, pick up L loop. Rnd 3—Through D rnd work: * 2 sc in next sc, sc in next 2 sc. Repeat from * around (24 sts). Drop L loop, pick up D loop. Rnd 4—Through L rnd work * sc in next 3 sc, 2 sc in next sc. Repeat from * around (6 incs). Continue working spiral, inc 6 sc evenly on each rnd (not directly over incs of previous rnd) until piece is 9" from beg, ending with D rnd. Sl st in last st. End off D. With L work 1 rnd even, ending 1 st beyond end of D rnd. Sl st in next st. Beading—Rnd 1—With L sc in same place as sl st, sc in next sc, * ch 2, skip 1 sc, sc in each of next 2 sc. Repeat from * around. Join last ch-2 with sl st in 1st sc. End off L. Rnd 2—Attach D in space, sc in space, * sc in each of next 2 sc, sc in next space. Repeat from * around. Join and end off.

Finishing—Holding rods of bag frame se­curely, unscrew ends, thus releasing rods. Fold bag in half and mark off 3" at each end for gussets. Run one rod in and out through spaces of one side of bag, re­mount rod on frame. Skip next 3" for gusset, run 2nd rod through spaces of other side and remount. Adjust fullness and fold gussets to inside.
