This is a crochet bag that uses the crocodile stitch for the front and the shell stitch for the back. The
crocodile stitch results in a very fun and highly textured fabric, dense enough to give the piece a good
structure without being super heavy.
The stitch itself is not difficult once you got how to make it, but it could be challenging for a beginner.
** The Crocodile stitch used in this bag is based on the one explained by Jenny at
yarn-muse.blogspot.com where she has written instructions and videos on how to work the first 3 rows
with this stitch.
