Stitches used: ch, sc, dc

Raffia Openwork Bag — Mesh Stitch Chart (worked as charted)

Foundation: ch 29 (a multiple for the repeat).
Row/Rnd 1: sc across (base row).
Pattern repeat (the bracketed section repeats around):
- 2 dc posts, ch loop, sc into the ch space of the row below, ch loop — forming an open square mesh
- alternate rows offset the dc posts so the openings stack into a diamond/net
Continue the repeat for the bag body height; the openwork lets light through (raffia mesh tote).
Symbols: oval = ch, X = sc, T-bar = dc.

Notes

Hand-drawn chart for a raffia mesh tote. Start 29 sts; the boxed section (marked 重复 = repeat) is worked around/across for the whole body. dc posts + ch loops + sc form the open squares.
