1/7Ice Cream Cone Bag
Original design by @闪念手作
A crossbody bag shaped like an ice cream cone: a plain single crochet cone topped with a lacy white scoop that closes with a drawstring. The long chain strap makes it a wearable novelty bag rather than a display piece.

Notes
Cone is a plain sc spiral; the scoop is a lacy ruffle worked partly into front loops and partly into back loops so it sits over the cone. Drawstring closure with a long chain shoulder strap.
Frequently asked questions
What do the square brackets mean in the chart?
Square brackets indicate that both stitches inside them are worked into the same stitch, so [hdc+dc] means one half double and one double crochet in a single stitch.
How does the scoop sit over the cone?
Round 32 is worked into the front loops of Rnd 31 and Rnd 34 goes back into the free back loops of the same round. The two layers grow in opposite directions so the ruffle drapes over the cone.
How long are the drawstring and strap?
The drawstring is a chain of 80 threaded through the holes of Rnd 39. The shoulder strap is a chain of 260 tied into the holes at both sides of Rnd 40, so you can shorten it to suit your height.
Can I make it smaller?
Yes. The cone increases two stitches per shaping round, so stopping the increases earlier and shortening the straight rounds gives a smaller pouch without changing the scoop pattern.
