1 LIFE OF THE SKY BAG- - PART 3 Continue to use the box to add these next flowers and help shape the bag. Remember: Use photos as a guide for general placement and joining of your flowers. It does not have to be exactly the same as photos Freeform!! You will notice some spaces between some flowers. These will be filled in during Part 5 of this CAL. Filling in now may affect the placement of flowers in Parts 4 & 5 so try to wait! Part 3 Summary: Add more flowers and decorative rows to front of bag. List of flowers used in Part 3: Summer Day Flower: 1 Popcorn Flower: 1 Heart Flower: 1 Bullion Petals Flower: 5 Spiral: 1 Double Bullion Flower: 2 Puff Stitch: (Yo, insert hook, yo and pull up a loop to height of a dc) 5 times, yo and pull through all 11 loops, ch1 to close (does not count as a stitch). Double Bullion Stitch: *Ch 4 (hook under the chains, yo and draw loop around chains, yo, draw through loop), 8 times, 9 loops on hook. Insert hook in the same (or next) space as ch4. Yo, pull through all loops on hook. (You may find it easier to make a sc before pulling through all loops.) Pull loop longer so that all 9 loops lie flat and are not bunched up. Leave this long loop on hook. Insert hook into next space, yo and pull up loop*. Repeat * - * for each double bullion stitch. Note: when working subsequent double bullion sts, on the 4 th chain work both loops off the hook. Part 3- - Detailed Guildeline: These photos are a guide only to help with flower placement. The numbers correspond to a step in this part of the pattern. Not all steps are numbered on these pictures. (Back of Bag) (Front of Bag)

2 1. Begin at top left of front of bag at joining point of Spiral and Bullion Petals Flower. Make *4 dc in space between popcorn, sk 1 popcorn* repeat until halfway around Spiral, attaching another Summer Day Flower in two spots as shown in photo.

On the last round join it to another Hearts Flower and to bottom of the round of dc you just completed on the other Hearts Flower (see photo for placement). (Photos P3 & P4)

3 P3 P4 4. Attach yarn at the join between the last two 4 dc groups of Spiral. From join, ch1, (puff st in ch1- sps, ch1) repeat across, join to chains under petal of Bullion Petals Flower. Fasten off. (Photo P5) P5 5. With wrong side facing, attach yarn into a ch 5 space on back of Bullion Petal Flower (closest to the puff stitch row) 3 sc in first space between puffs, 3 sc in each of next 8 spaces, joining to Spiral. 6. Ch 1, turn. *Sc in next sc. Ch 5, sc in second chain from hook, hdc in next, dc in next 2 sts, skip one sc from step 5, sc in next* 8 times. Fasten off (Photo P6) P6 7. With wrong side facing attach yarn into a ch 5 space of Bullion Petal Flower, ch 2, sk 1 sc of previous row, dc into the next sc, *ch 3, dc into sc of step 5* 9 times. Ch1, join to second dc in second 4 dc group on Spiral. Turn work. Ch 4, sl st to the next space between third and fourth 4dc group on spiral. Work one double bullion stitch with 8 wraps around ch 4 and tops of each dc of the 3 rd dc group on Spiral then 2 double bullion

4 stitches with 8 wraps, in each ch 3 space across, working only one double bullion in last space. Join to back of Bullion Petals Flower and fasten off. (Photo P7) P7 8. Make a Popcorn Flower. On last round join to the second Hearts Flower, and Bullion Petals Flower and between the 2dc groups worked around other Hearts Flower. (Photo P8) P8 (Steps 9 and 10 see P9) 9. Make a Double Bullion Flower attaching it to the Summer Day Flower on the right, the other Double Bullion Flower and the Popcorn Flower. 10. Make a Bullion Petal Flower. Attach using chains and sl sts to the Double Bullion Flower just made, the right side of the Popcorn Flower and the top right of the Heart Flower. (Photo P9)

5 P9 11. Make another Spiral (see note below) and another Bullion Petals Flower (join to Spiral as you work last round- - see photo). Using slip stitches and chains, join Spiral to the right (with the top of the bag at the bottom) of the 2nd Hearts Flower and to the top of the double bullion stitches on the first Hearts Flower as well as to the new Bullion Petals Flower. (Photo P10) Note: Spiral- - as photo 9 & 10 show you need to reduce the number of spokes to 16 to enable it to sit correctly on the bag. Suggest working only one spoke into each stitch instead of where pattern says 2. Adjust the second round of stitches accordingly. P10

6 12. Make 2 Bullion Petal Flowers. On last round, join one flower to bottom of Spiral and Summer Day Flower on the left side of bag. Attach the other Bullion Petal Flower to it and to the bullion stitches at the bottom of Heart Flower as well as the Bullion Petal Flower made in Step 11.
