Yesterday I crocheted a mini bag, which would suite a doll (Barbie doll size), it took me about 30-40mins. This is a very easy beginner project (I would know because I'm a beginner). You could even make this bag for yourself (I would take a lot longer though).
You need to be able to how to chain stitch and single crochet.
You will need:
2 different wools (same colour or not doesn't matter).
A crochet hook.
Patients.
We will work with 2 balls/strand of wool the same way you would work with one.
Here are the instructions:
1)Create a slip knot.
2)Chain as many stiches/chain as you want.(Depending on how long you want the bag. The chains is the bag sideways not from top to bottom!)
2)Do 5 single crochets in the 2nd chain from the hook.
3)Single crochet once in each stitch/chain, until you reach the last one.
4)Single crochet 5 times in the last stitch/chain.
5)You will now realise that you have turned to the other side of the chain. Single crochet to the end.
6)Slip stitch into the first stitch/chain.
7)Now single chain all the way around, and keep doing so until the bag is the height you would like it to be.
8)Tie of the string.
9)To create the straps, hook into a stitch/chain on the right hand side of the bag, that is 2nd last to the side of the bag.
10)Attach your wool and chain stitch to the length you would like your strap.
11)Then hook into the 2nd last on the left hand side.
12)Attach and tie off. Do the same on the other side.
13)There will be wool sticking out secure it and weave it in with a sewing needle.
14)If you like you could make a bow with the string hanging out on one side of one of the handles (or both sides or both handles).
And that's all you have to do.
I hope I explained well enough. If I had a good or proper camera I would have made a video or I would have taken pictures so you could see. Hopefully I will get a camera. Sadly after this project I lost my crochet hook little Mo took my crochet hook, and lost it! I need to find it.
