Crochet Pattern
Starting the Bag
Base Chain: Chain 24 stitches, then single crochet into the second chain from the hook.
First Row: Single crochet in the next stitch, chain one, skip a stitch, and continue to the next stitch. Repeat this pattern (two single crochets, chain one, skip a stitch) until the end.
Second Row: Chain three and turn. Single crochet into the chain one space, then single crochet in the next stitch.
Adding Texture with Puff Stitches
- Puff Stitch Foundation: To start the puff stitch, work into the base chain creating a puff stitch as described, followed by a single crochet in the next chain space. Repeat across the row.
- Continuation: Chain three, turn, and skip the first stitch. Single crochet into the next, and place a puff stitch in the same stitch as the previous row’s puff stitch. Skip the next two stitches, and single crochet into the third. Repeat across.
- Building the Body: Repeat these two rows for a total of 15 rows.
Finishing the Bag’s Body
- Edging: Single crochet around the entire edge of the bag, with specific instructions for corners and shorter edges. Slip stitch to close.

Handles
