You will love this rainy day rainbow drawstring pouch pattern. It is the first of five rainy day projects I have planned for this upcoming week. Each rainy day project can be completed in a day. The pattern is worked in the round from the bottom up. The bottom circle of the pouch is made in double crochet, and the top and sides are made in half double crochet.

Easy How To Crochet A Bag Step By Step

If you have ever wanted a handmade bag that looks complicated but is actually approachable, this easy crochet bag is the project to try. This step-by-step design turns plush yarn and simple stitches into a sculptural botanical tote with raised leaf details and a sturdy arched handle. It is especially useful for craft fairs because shoppers notice texture immediately, while the construction is simple enough to make in repeatable batches. Beginners can work slowly through each round, use stitch markers, and build confidence without juggling many separate pieces. The finished bag also makes a thoughtful gift, market sample, or cozy everyday accessory. The leaf-inspired texture gives it a boutique look, but the pattern relies on familiar US crochet stitches and counted rounds. If you are searching for how to crochet a bag step by step, this pattern gives you a practical, beginner-friendly roadmap from the foundation to the final handle.

"Make either a mini kiss clasp coin purse, or a drawstring pouch, with this free Rainbow Purse and Pouch crochet pattern! The finished coin purse or pouch measures approximately 2.5” high by 3” wide, with an opening of 2” in diameter. I have used Drops Paris and Rico Essential Cotton Aran/Worsted weight yarn, with a 4.5mm hook. You can use any Aran/Worsted weight yarn, but I would recommend using cotton for sturdiness and durability. Exact gauge isn't too important. Just keep your stitches compact to avoid large gaps in your finished purse."
