🧶 Overview of the Project

In the video, the creator shows a pattern which works as a baby blanket texture but then converts or uses that panel design to make a bag. The tutorial is described as super-easy and eye-catching, making it beginner-friendly. The bag uses basic stitches and a repeating motif, then the panel is sewn or folded into bag shape.


✅ Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Foundation Chain

  1. Decide the width of the panel (which will be the width of your bag). For example, chain 40 (adjust higher for larger bag).

  2. Make an extra chain if needed for turning – e.g., ch 40 + 2.

Step 2: Row 1 – Base Row

  1. Start in the 2nd chain from the hook, work sc in each chain across.

  2. At end of row, turn your work, ch 1.

Step 3: Row 2 – Establish the -Eye-Catching Texture

  1. Work hdc or dc stitches as per the video – typically: dc in next 2 sts, skip 1 chain, dc in next st, etc.

  2. Then work a contrasting stitch or chain space to form the textured motif. (Video shows some chain-spaces or skip sts creating texture).

  3. At end, ch 1 and turn.

Step 4: Row 3 and Onwards – Repeat the Texture Pattern

  1. Align the pattern so that the texture is repeated: for example, skip 1 st, work dc in next st, ch 1, skip 1 st, dc in next st — repeat across the row.

  2. At the end of each row, ch 1 turn.

  3. Continue these rows until your panel reaches the desired height (for example, about 30 cm for medium bag).


Step 5: Folding & Bag Assembly

  1. Once you have your panel, fold it in half (width-wise) so the textured side is outside and the panel forms front and back of bag.

  2. Seam the sides by working sc or whip-stitch along the side edges from bottom up to top (leaving the top open).

  3. (Optional) Add a bottom panel if you want a boxed bottom: you can crochet a rectangle or oval and attach it to the folded panel’s bottom edge.

Step 6: Add Handles / Strap

  1. Decide where you want your handles (for example, 6 chains in from side edge).

  2. Attach yarn at the top edge, ch a desirable length for handle (e.g., ch 60 for shoulder strap), skip the same number of top-edge stitches, sl st to anchor.

  3. Reinforce the strap by sc around the chain loop and top edge for 1 round.

Step 7: Finishing Border

  1. Work 1–2 rounds of sc around the top edge of the bag (and through handle loops if made) to create a neat border.

  2. Add any decorative border if you like (for example, “crab stitch” reverse sc).

  3. Fasten off the yarn, cut and weave in all ends neatly.

Step 8: Optional Fabric Lining

  1. If you want a lining: cut fabric to the interior size of bag (allow for seam allowance).

  2. Hem top edge, then hand-sew or machine-sew the lining into place inside the bag.

  3. You may also sew in a small zip pocket or leather base if desired.

💡 Tips from the tutorial

  • Keep your tension consistent so the fabric doesn’t flare or cave in.

  • Use contrasting color for texture row if you want the pattern to “pop”.

  • When adding handles, make sure both sides are measured and placed equally so the bag hangs evenly.

  • If using the panel for blanket version instead of a bag, simply keep going until you reach desired size and add a border.

Establish the Eye-Catching Pattern The tutorial centers around a visually striking repeat—such as alternating textures, openwork motifs, or layered stitches. A common beginner-friendly approach: skip‑1 chains, cluster stitches in gaps, alternating with solid stitches to create pattern depth. 4.
