How to Make a Chromie Drawstring Bag: A Step-by-Step Tutorial

Introduction Welcome to this tutorial on how to make your very own chromie drawstring bag. In this tutorial, I will guide you through the process of creating a colorful and charming drawstring bag that you can use to store your belongings. The chromie drawstring bag comes in two color versions, and I will show you how to make the purple one. So, let's gather our materials and get started!

Materials Needed Before we begin, make sure you have the following materials ready:

• Yarn in your desired colors
• Crochet hook
• Scissors
• Yarn needle
• Pins
• Glue

Step 1: Starting the Drawstring Bag To start making the drawstring bag, we will first create the base. Follow these steps:

Slipknot: Begin by creating a slipknot and inserting your crochet hook into the hole. Tighten it securely.

Making Chains: Make 25 chains, starting from the third chain. These chains will serve as the foundation for the drawstring bag.

Double Crochet: Continue by making 21 double crochets. Crochet to the end of the row, making sure to hide the yarn behind as you go along.

Step 2: Creating the Back Part Now, let's complete the back part of the drawstring bag. Follow these instructions:

Row 1: Begin with two chains and continue making 48 double crochets. Slip stitch at the beginning to complete the row.

Row 2: Repeat Row 1, making 48 double crochets. Slip stitch at the beginning to complete the row.

Row 3: Repeat Row 2, making 48 double crochets. Slip stitch at the beginning to complete the row.

Row 4: Repeat Row 3, making 48 double crochets. Slip stitch at the beginning to complete the row.

Row 5: Repeat Row 4, making 48 double crochets. Slip stitch at the beginning to complete the row.

Row 6 to 11: Repeat the same steps for each row, beginning with two chains and continue making 48 double crochets. Slip stitch at the beginning to complete the row.

Row 12: Begin with two chains and continue with two double crochets. Make one chain and skip one stitch. Repeat this pattern (2 double crochets, 1 chain, skip 1 stitch) until the end of the row. Slip stitch at the beginning to complete the row.

Row 13: Begin with two chains and make 48 double crochets. Slip stitch at the beginning to complete the row. Make one chain and cut the yarn.

Step 3: Making the Drawstring Now, let's create the drawstring for the bag. Follow these steps:

Make a slipknot and insert the hook into the hole. Make 72 chains in total. Repeat the same steps to create another drawstring.

Step 4: Creating the Balls To add a decorative touch to the bag, let's create the balls. Follow these instructions:

Make a magic ring and make six single crochets into the ring. Put a pin as a mark and continue making the remaining five single crochets. Take a long yarn and pull it through the hole, making it smaller. Remove the pin and slip stitch at the beginning to complete the round. Repeat the same steps to create another ball.

Step 5: Adding the Face Now, let's give our chromie drawstring bag a face. Follow these steps:

Make a slipknot and make 16 chains. Starting from the second stitch, make single crochets to create the face shape. Cut a pin as a marker and continue making 13 single crochets. Then, make three single crochets inside the same stitch. Continue making single crochets, and finally, make two single crochets inside the last stitch. Remove the pin and slip stitch at the beginning. Cut the yarn and sew it inside the bag to hide it.

Step 6: Making the Ears To complete the cute look of the bag, let's add the ears. Follow these instructions:

Make a slipknot and make 10 chains. Starting from the second stitch, make a slip stitch and continue with two single crochets. Then, make a half double crochet, followed by a double crochet and another half double crochet. Continue making half double crochets in single crochets. Make three single crochets inside the same stitch and then make a single crochet, followed by a half double crochet and double crochet. Continue making half double crochets and finish with two single crochets. Slip stitch at the beginning to complete the stitch. Cut the yarn and sew it to hide it.

Step 7: Sewing the Parts Together Now, let's assemble all the parts of the bag. Follow these steps:

Attach the balls to the bag by sewing them over the back. Sew the frost rings at the back of the bag. Tie a knot behind and cut the yarn. Repeat the same steps for the other ball.

Step 8: Adding the Final Touches To complete the bag, add some blush on chromie's face. Thank you for following my tutorial on how to make a chromie drawstring bag. Don't forget to like and subscribe to my YouTube channel for more free patterns.
