Rustic Market Bag with Mandala Base - With My Variation



This is not my pattern, I found it here:- 


Why have I copied someone else's pattern to my blog?

I began coping them here when I discovered that some of my favourite patterns had disappeared from the web or the links didn't work... 😢
But I will always credit the original owner and display the link.

For this pattern I didn't like the joins for each round so I changed those and did them the way I always do.
Also the pattern didn't make sense to me after round 8 and would not have looked like the picture so where the **s are I've changed that too.
