welcome to the ville!  

 

what i see in the photo is simply chain loops and shells of double crochet.  Your photos are just about clear enough to count the stitches so you can replicate it.  However, as I understand the forum guidelines we really are not supposed to discuss in detail the reverse-engineering of an item.

 

Are the photos of a commercially available bag, or somebody's personal project, or...?

I mean what the way those stitches are worked , is it back and forth or working each side beacause each side have different number of stitches.

 

 

Sarasoo, I think you are answering your own question.  You will have to do it in sections.

What you could also do , as an alternative, would be to look for center-out, square shape doily patterns.  I believe it won't be too hard to find some that have a star-ish shape inthe middle, or pineapples etc.   Or a center-out octagon could work too, you would only have to fill in the 4 corners.

Your exact pattern isn't here, but below are links to free square doily patterns that might work for a similar look; you could make them in thicker thread, like #3 doily cotton, or perhaps Paton's Grace which is mercerized DK weight.  Some are intended to be connected up for bedspreads and such, and have sort of delicate edges to which you might want to add a few rounds of solid stitches at the edges, to be sturdier.

One of the motifs in your pattern is a spider stitch (the part that looks like little squares with rays coming out of them), examples here

While we enjoy helping others work out crochet problems, we have to make sure we're following copyright law when we do so. The photos you included in your original post came from another party's website. They cannot be uploaded here without the copyright owner's permission, so I've removed them from your post.

 

In most cases, I'd ask you to provide a link to the web page where you found the photos. Unfortunately, these photos came from a site in another country that is well-known for allowing its members to upload copyrighted material without permission of the copyright holders. As such, we cannot allow links to that site.

 

You are asking for help in reverse engineering a crochet design. Generally speaking, out of respect to fellow crochet designers, we do not allow detailed, explicit help in reverse engineering. The information that has provided here has been general in nature: how to turn a non-square shape into a square shape. Talking about the general concepts involved in doing this is totally okay with forum rules, as long as the discussion doesn't devolve into discussion of exactly how to do this for this design in particular.

 

I hope you've received the guidance you needed. If not, it's fine to continue the discussion in general terms.
