W.I.P.: The Crochet Backpack

Hey everyone,

do you remember that Crochet Backpack I started working on last year in August? Well, I finally decided to resume it :)

With what I now have in mind it will not turn out like originally planned.
I added a couple of more rounds to the body, which has now 32 rounds in total. After joining the last round with a slip stitch I started to hook a flap:

Row 1: 3 ch, 10 dc, 1 front post dc, 11 dc, 1 front post dc, 11 dc, turn
Row 2: 3 ch, 34 front post dc, turn
Row 3-11: 3 ch, 10 dc, 1 front (uneven rows) / back (even rows) post dc, 11 dc, 1 front (uneven rows) / back (even rows) post dc, 11 dc, turn
Row 12: 1x decrease, 9 dc, 1 back post dc, 11 dc, 1 back post dc, 9 dc, 1 decrease, turn
Row 13: 1x decrease, 8 dc, 1 front post dc, 11 dc, 1 front post dc, 8 dc, 1 decrease, turn
Row 14: 1x decrease, 7 dc, 1 back post dc, 11 dc, 1 back post dc, 7 dc, 1 decrease, turn
Row 15: 1x decrease, 6 dc, 1 front post dc, 11 dc, 1 front post dc, 6 dc, 1 decrease, turn
Row 16: 1x decrease, 5 dc, 4 (tight) ch, skip one dc, 11 dc, 4 (tight) ch, skip one dc, 5 dc, 1 decrease, cut yarn, sew in the ends
