This crossbody bag is a one-skein project. I love one skein projects. This bag was made using Bernat Home Decor yarn. I love the stitch definition that this yarn provides and how this is perfect for a Macrame inspired bag like this one. The pattern also tells you how to add a lining so your bag would be more sturdy and won't stretch and sag. This bag is the perfect size to hold your keys, wallet and a bottle of water.

Water Bottle Holder
"A simple, useful thing of beauty. Thoughts of carefree days. Of travels. Of adventures. A cool sip of water on a hot day. Meet the lovely Crochet Water Bottle Holder. Because, really, any time you're adventuring you might need a sip of water from a bottle you'd like to carry with you. On a hike maybe or to a park. The strap is perfect for throwing over your shoulder or wearing it cross body style-which is my personal favorite. The water bottle cover is worked in cotton worsted weight yarn, the kind often used for dishcloths. You might even have some yarn in your stash for the project! Let's dive in!"
Sandy Crossbody Tote
"This pattern was designer by a guest designer through Joy of Motion Crochet. The Sandy Crossbody Tote is the perfect on-the-go stylish tote. Throw a couple of water bottles and a pair of sunglasses in it for a quick visit to the park with your kiddos. Throw your wallet and coupons in it for a jaunt up to the craft store. Toss in a book and a bottle of sunscreen and hit the beach. This tote would even make a beautiful date night bag. If you are worried about small bits like lipstick or other odds and ends, then grab a stylish little zipper pouch to put those little bits in and toss it into your Sandy Crossbody Tote."

Pair with my crossbody bag pattern to make a set! The final wallet measures 6.5″ wide by 5″ tall. The wallet uses a size E and size G hook, 100% cotton yarn and 6 inch zipper. The stitches are worked into the zipper itself (use a awl or large sharp needle to poke the holes) then the pattern is worked down both sides of the wallet then joined together.
