The Spring Sprig Bag Free Crochet Pattern

"This bag pattern is a perfect project for a confident beginner. It is worked from the bottom (base) up and uses basic crochet stitches. The base and top part of this bag are worked in the round (in a spiral). The main body part, on the other hand, though it is still worked in the round after crocheting the last stitch of the round, you have to slip stitch it into the very first stitch of that same round to join and then you will need to chain 1 to get the height of the next stitch. I've also included an option to add a detachable shoulder strap which you have the choice of crocheting your own strap or using a leather one."

My Go To Bag

Straps 26 inches long and 2 inches wide Bag 17 inches long by 15 inches wide when measured on a flat surface Handle Drop 14 inches My Go To Bag is my practical, everyday crocheted bag. I wanted a bag I could use for everything - from beach bag to book bag - a single crocheted base gives this bag extra support - the first few rounds are crocheted in double crochet and then the main bag is worked up in an easy to work granny stitch stripe pattern. I chose to make my straps slightly wider than most bags because when you fill the bag and the straps stretch, they will remain comfortable on your shoulders. If you would like to have a narrower strap, it is very easy to change the width of the strap. Simply add one extra decrease repeat of: Sc2tog, 1 sc in each of the next 2 sts, sc2tog. Ch 1, turn. 4 in place of R11 of the straps and for R80 work: 2 sc in the first st, 1 sc in each of the next 2 sts, 2 sc in the last st, ch 1, turn. 6. Have fun making this simple, attractive and practical Go To Bag! You can substitute any yarn and hook for this stitch pattern - just remember when you substitute if your gauge is different, the finished size of your project will also be different.

Crochet Beach Bag With Giant Shell Stitch

I love this beautiful bag not only for its cute patterns but, more importantly, its size and dimensions. This free crochet tote bag pattern makes a sturdy oversized bag that has a round base of about 15.5 in diameter and a body (including the shoulder straps) of roughly 25 tall. It is the perfect size for all your beach trip essentials and more.

Though it is presented as a beach bag, it is actually great to use as a market bag for your weekly trip to the farmers market. It will definitely hold all the fresh produce in place, preventing bruises on fruits and veggies. Be it functional for everyday use and/or aesthetically pleasing, it sure is a perfect modern crochet bag pattern to crochet.
