Makin' Jam.
Oh yeah...
Crocheted Produce Bag
Well, I thought since the produce bag was something I just made up real quick I should post the pattern. I am sure there are way better ones out there, but most of them end up decreasing at the end to get a smaller opening, but I wanted mine large so leafy stuff that I buy in multiple little bunches could poke out, like baby broccoli or bok choy. So here is the pattern, just in case you want to make a couple as well. Materials: 1 skein Lion Brand Organic Cotton Yarn (#680), or similar worsted weight yarn Size I-9 Crochet Hook Little scrap of fabric (optional) Rnd 1: Begin with an adjustable loop , and crochet 12 double crochet (dc) into the loop and pull tight. Rnd 2: *Chain 7, skip 1 dc and slip stitch in next dc.* Repeat around. It should look like a little flower: Rnd 3: Chain 7, Slip stitch (slst) into 4th chain (ch) of round 2. You will ch 7 and attach it to the center of every little petal of the flower you created in round 2. At the end of the round ch 3 and slst into the 4th...
That looks sooo delicious and fun! I was just wondering about how long the jam keeps?? Although I'm sure it's so delicious that it isn't a problem!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I've been following your blog for a while, and I added a link to it on my own blog in my "good internet reads" section. I hope you don't mind! If so, please just let me know and I'll take it right down!
Our neighbor had a plum tree like that. She said they got worms in them since she didn't spray, but she just chopped it down. I would love to have a tree like that.
ReplyDelete@ Leslie: Aren't they the best!? Too bad she had a worm problem.
ReplyDelete@Emily: It keeps for about a year if you do the sterile hot water bath canning like I did. And of course I don't mind! Thank you so much for reading and linking to me!
