Introduction

In this tutorial, you will learn how to make a crochet drawstring bag. This stylish and versatile bag can be used for various purposes and is a fun project for crochet enthusiasts. With just a few materials and some basic crochet stitches, you can create your own unique and functional bag.

Materials Needed

Before we get started, gather the following materials:

• Hook number 4
• Nylon thread
• Slip knot
• Marker
• Scissors

Making the Bottom of the Bag

To begin, we will first create the bottom of the bag using the magic ring technique.

Creating the Magic Ring

Make a magic ring and chain three stitches. Next, make eleven double crochets into the ring. Once you have completed the stitches, tighten the ring and slip stitch in the first three chains to secure it.

Double Crochet Rounds

Continue working in the round by chaining three and making a double crochet in the same stitch. For each subsequent stitch, make a double crochet in the front post followed by a regular double crochet. Repeat this pattern for one round and slip stitch in the three initial chains.

Increasing the Diameter

To increase the diameter of the bag, continue working in the same pattern. Make two double crochets in one stitch, followed by a double crochet in the front post. Repeat this pattern for one round, slip stitch, and continue for the desired width.

Creating the Bag Pattern

Once you have reached the desired width, it's time to start creating the pattern for the sides of the bag.

Making the Sides of the Bag

Continue working in rounds, making double crochets and using the front post technique. Repeat this pattern until the bag reaches the desired height. The result should be a cylindrical shape.

Attaching the Bag Strap

To attach the bag strap, identify the midpoint of the sides. With a hook number 4, create the bag strap using the single crochet stitch. Attach the strap to the bag by sewing it securely. This will provide a sturdy handle for carrying the bag.

Making the Drawstrings

Next, we will create the drawstrings for the bag.

Creating the Drawstring Rope

Using two strands of nylon thread and a hook number 4, create a slip knot and hook the threads together. Pull the threads through the loops, creating a rope-like structure. Make two drawstring ropes, each measuring 75 cm.

Attaching the Drawstring to the Bag

Attach the drawstrings to the sides of the bag. Start from the midpoint and secure the drawstrings along the straight line. This will allow the bag to be cinched closed.

Adding the Drawstring Closure

To complete the drawstring closure, create a slip knot and chain five stitches. Make single crochets in each stitch, making two single crochets in the corners. Repeat this pattern for a few rounds until the closure is desired height and width. This will keep the drawstrings securely closed.

Finishing Touches

After completing the drawstring closure, trim any excess threads and sew any loose ends. Make sure the closure is secure and functions as intended.
