The easy crochet pattern and beautiful Deni bag

 


Here’s a detailed step‑by‑step written tutorial  “The easy crochet pattern and beautiful Deni bag”  This tote‑style bag featured is crocheted using bulky cotton cord or t‑shirt yarn and works up quickly.

🧶 Materials

  • Bulky cotton cord or t‑shirt yarn (e.g. ~5–8 mm thickness)

  • Crochet hook suitable for cord (around size 8–10 mm)

  • Scissors, tapestry needle

  • (Optional) stitch markers or lining materials

🌟 Overview

This tutorial teaches a simple and sturdy crochet method to make the Deni handbag, with dimensions approximately 26 cm tall, 30 cm wide, and 14 cm deep. The construction is done in continuous rounds (no seaming), with simple stitch patterns and optional decoration stripes.

Step 1: Crochet the Base

  1. Chain stitches (foundation) wide enough for bag width—typically enough to create a rectangular or oval base about 30 cm wide.

  2. Work single crochet (sc) stitches back and forth in rows to form the base layer.

  3. Add extra stitches at the short edges to round the corners, if shaping into an oval.

Continue working base rows until the piece measures around 14 cm deep as in the video.

Step 2: Begin Bag Sides

  1. Once base depth is reached, join the work in the round.

  2. Begin continuous rounds of sc to build up the sides.

  3. At each round’s end, simply continue into the next stitch without turning. This creates smooth, seamless tube‑style walls.

Step 3: Adding Decorative Stripes or Texture

  1. At chosen intervals, change yarn color for accent stripes, as seen in the video with brown lines.

  2. For stripe pattern: work two sc into one stitch, skip the next stitch, repeat across a round—this creates a subtle pattern band 

  3. Continue with plain rounds in between accent rounds to maintain structure.


Step 4: Achieving Desired Height

  • Crochet up for about 26 cm total height (including base and sides) to match the design shown in the tutorial.

  • Keep stitch count consistent each round to ensure smooth vertical walls.

Step 5: Top Border Finish

  1. Finish the bag’s top with 2–3 plain sc rounds in matching or contrast color.

  2. This clean border strengthens the top edge and prepares anchor points for handles.

Step 6: Adding Handles (Optional)

  • Though not shown in detail, typical handle attachment involves:

    • Slip an anchor loop or chain handles on opposite sides of top edge.

    • Work sc around and over handles to reinforce.

    • Alternatively, stitch on separate handles (e.g. leather or cord straps) as preferred.

Step 7: Secure & Weave Ends

  1. End with a slip stitch to close final round.

  2. Cut the yarn, leaving a short tail, and pull through the last loop.

  3. Use a tapestry needle to weave in all loose ends securely inside the bag interior.

💡 Pro Tips (from Reddit discussion and tutorial insights)

  • Crochet more loosely than with standard yarn to manage bulky cord comfortably

  • Use cotton cord for a structured and stable tote.

  • Practice the accent stripe technique in a sample swatch before applying to the bag.

  • If using heavier cord, take breaks to avoid hand fatigue.

By using this structure—solid crochet base, clean continuous rounds, decorative pattern bands, and sturdy borders—you can recreate the Deni tote bag exactly as shown in the video.
