Dorm Cargo Net

Easy to make using only single and double crochet stitches, this can be made in any size to capture a variety of bedside items.

Yarn-I used Premier Home Cotton in Pewter, one 131 yd/2.65 oz skein. Buy more if making yours larger.

G Hook

Abbreviations: ch-chain, sc-single crochet, dc-double crochet(US), sk-skip, slst-slip stitch.

ch 51

Row 1. Sc in second ch from the hook and all the way across, ch1, turn. (50)

Row 2-27. Sc 50 across, ch1, turn. (50)

Row 28. Sc 50 across, ch4, turn. (50)(ch4 will count as a dc and a ch1 in the next row)

Row 29-35. *Sk 1, dc, ch 1, repeat from *across to end, ch 4, turn.(at end of row 35 ch1, turn) 

Row 36 & 37. Sc across, ch 1, turn.

Fasten Off

Fold with mesh on top, keeping backside taller by 2 rows. Thread the yarn onto a tapestry needle and whipstitch both ends closed.

For two ties, I did ch 80 each and simply ran it through a stitch on each top corner. For a larger cargo net you could add a tie to the center back.
