Step-by-Step Pattern

Foundation/Base

Start with a Chain: CH 15.

Round 1: SC in the 2nd CH from the hook, SC in the next 12 stitches, 3 SC in the last CH. Now work along the opposite side of the chain, SC into the next 12 stitches, 3 SC in the last CH. (Total: 30 stitches)

Round 2: SC around, increasing 1 SC at each end of the oval for a total of 4 increases. (Total: 34 stitches)

Rounds 3-4: Repeat Round 2 to form a sturdy oval base, increasing in the same positions. (Total: 38 stitches)

Body of the Bag

Round 1: SC in each stitch around; continue working in the round without joining.

Rounds 2-25: SC in each stitch around for a total of 25 rounds. Pull the loop tight to close the spiral when you're done with the final round.

Optional: Add stripes or color changes to personalize your bag.

Creating the Strap

Attach yarn to one side of the bag’s upper edge where you’d like the strap to begin.

Chain: CH a length of 100-120 stitches (or as long as you want the strap to be).

Attach the strap to the opposite side of the bag using a SL ST.

SC into each CH back across the strap to add thickness and durability. Attach with SL ST to the same starting point.

Finishing Touches

Use your yarn needle to weave in any loose ends. Trim excess yarn neatly.

Add buttons or other embellishments for a unique look, if desired.
