Crochet Flower Bag Tutorial

• Tutor introduces the project: a beautiful flower bag that can be customized to any desired size.
• Miss A lists the required materials:
  • 3mm PP cord
  • 4.5mm crochet hook
  • Scissors
  • Stitch marker
  • Tape measure
  • Bag handle (she later selects a round handle).

2. Starting with the Magic Circle

• The tutorial begins with creating a magic circle as the foundation of the base.
• Miss A provides guidance on how to make the circle, followed by several rounds of crocheting using double crochets.
• Slip stitches are used at the end of each round to secure the base.

3. Increasing Rounds for the Base

• The base of the bag is built by increasing the stitch count in each subsequent row.
• The pattern alternates between normal and back-loop-only double crochets.

• As the rows progress, the tutorial explains a systematic way of increasing stitches to create a flat, circular base.
• After completing six rows, the base diameter is measured (approximately 7 inches or 19cm).

4. Working on the Flower Petals

• The flower petals are created in front loops of the base stitches.
  • The petals are built using a combination of double crochets, single crochets, and slip stitches.
• Each petal consists of multiple layers, including increases and chains to give them a three-dimensional, rounded appearance.

• The process includes repeating the petal pattern for consistency and completing multiple rounds of petals around the base.

5. Shaping the Bag

• Once the petals are complete, Miss A moves to shaping the bag.
  • She carefully transitions from working on the individual petals to assembling the sides.
  • The petals are evenly spaced and connected to ensure symmetry.

6. Attaching the Handles

• Handles are attached to the top edge of the bag using single crochets for secure placement.
• Miss A initially uses a specific handle type but later decides a round handle looks better and switches it.
• Precise stitch markers are added to ensure the handles are correctly aligned.

7. Joining and Final Assembly

• The two halves of the bag are joined using slip stitches.
• Miss A demonstrates how to align the edges, ensuring all parts are neatly and symmetrically connected.

• She leaves a small space near the top of the bag for additional flexibility and handles.

8. Finishing Touches

• Loose ends are carefully fastened and trimmed to give the bag a clean and polished look.
• Miss A emphasizes tightening and securing all stitches for durability.

• The final flower bag is showcased, featuring a vibrant design suited for various uses.

Conclusion

• Miss A encourages her viewers to personalize their bags according to their preferences (e.g., size or color).
