Crochet Round Shoulder Bag

Materials:

Worsted weight yarn - 200 yards in a natural tan color
Crochet hook size H/8 (5.0 mm)
Scissors
Tapestry needle for weaving in ends
Measuring tape

Gauge:

To ensure your bag is the correct size, crochet a swatch of 10 single crochets (sc) and 10 rows. Measure 4 inches square – your gauge should be approximately 4 sc per inch. Adjust your hook size if necessary to match.

Abbreviations:

ch: chain
sc: single crochet
sl st: slip stitch
rnd: round
st: stitch

Instructions:

Base of the Bag:

Make a magic ring or ch 4 and join to form a ring.
Rnd 1: 6 sc in the ring. (6 sts)
Rnd 2: 2 sc in each st around. (12 sts)
Rnd 3: *1 sc in the next st, 2 sc in the next st* repeat around. (18 sts)
Rnd 4: *1 sc in the next 2 sts, 2 sc in the next st* repeat around. (24 sts)
Rnd 5: *1 sc in the next 3 sts, 2 sc in the next st* repeat around. (30 sts)
Rnd 6: *1 sc in the next 4 sts, 2 sc in the next st* repeat around. (36 sts)
Continue increasing in this manner until the base measures approximately 10 inches in diameter, usually around 10-12 rounds.

Sides of the Bag:

When you reach the desired diameter, stop increasing.
From here, work in continuous rounds without increasing:
Rnd 1: 1 sc in each st around. Repeat this round until the sides reach 8 inches in height.

Finishing the Bag:

To create the top finished edge, make 1 more round of sc, then switch to slip stitches for a cleaner edge.
Cut yarn, leaving a long tail. Pull the tail through the last loop and tighten.

Strap:

Ch 80 (or desired length for strap).
1 sc in each chain back to the beginning.
Fold the strap in half and attach it to the bag by slip stitching it securely on both sides.

Finishing Touches:

Weave in all ends using your tapestry needle.
For extra sturdiness, you may choose to block the bag by dampening it and shaping it, allowing it to dry flat.

Enjoy using your gorgeous new crochet round shoulder bag!
