Instructions
Work the bottom in double crochets around the chain of chain stitches.
- Start by making 51 chain stitches, make double crochets down the chain of chain stitches.
- In the last stitch make 5 double crochets.
Turn the piece and work back through the chain of chain stitches, making 5 double crochets in the last stitch.
Make dc until you reach the stitch with 5 dc, in the 5 stitches make inc , dc , inc , dc , inc
Turn the piece and continue to make dc until you reach the stitch with the 5 dc. In the next 5 stitches work: inc, fm , inc , fm , inc (116)
Now the circumference of the bottom is made, next round work only in the back stitch chain.
- Make 116 double crochets in the back loop
Until otherwise stated, work in treble crochets. Start each round with 3 chain stitches and end the round with a slip stitch.
Make 37 rounds of treble crochets, followed by 3 rounds of dc.
THE HANDLE
Work the handle in rows back and forth, working double crochets and 1 turning chain.
It is useful to insert stitch markers where the handle is meant to be.
- Place a marker in the next stitch, stitch 1 and stitch 8 - skip 49 stitches
- Insert a marker in stitch 58 and stitch 67, crochet the handle on between the two markers
Make 8 double crochets, 1 chain stitch as turning chain.
Turn the piece and work back and forth until the handle measures approx. 60 cm.
Now crochet the handle on the opposite side.
Make sure that the handle is not twisted and hold it against the opposite side of the net and work it with double crochets.
Cut the yarn so it has a long end. To give it a nice finish weave through the stitches on the handle so it lays nicely up the side of the net - fasten the end.
