If you're looking to add a touch of charm to your accessory collection, consider crocheting an adorable handbag! Not only is it a fun and creative way to personalize your style, but it also allows you to show off your craftsmanship and attention to detail. Whether you opt for a classic design or choose to experiment with different colors and stitches, the possibilities are endless when it comes to creating a handbag that suits your personality.

So grab your crochet hook, select your favorite yarn, and get ready to stitch up a cute and practical accessory that will surely turn heads wherever you go!

Materials:

US - I, 5.5mm Hook (Furls Fiberarts Hook shown)
180 yds total Bernat Handicrafter (Worsted; 100% cotton)
Stormy Skies, Sail White, and Orangesicle shown

Finished size: 11" wide and 7" tall underneath the handles.

NOTE: You can carry the yarn along the inside of the bag rather than cutting it after each row, if desired.

Row 1: With Color A, ch 33, hdc in the 2nd ch from the hook, hdc in each remaining ch to end; turn. (32 sts)

Row 2 - 4: Ch 1, hdc in each st across; turn. (32 sts)

Round 5: (See Bag Bottoms tutorial linked above) Ch 1, hdc in 32 sts across, hdc 4 along the side, hdc 32 across the foundation chain, hdc 4 up the last side; join with Color B with a sl st in first hdc of round, do not turn. (72 sts)

Round 6: Continuing with Color B, Ch 1, hdc in the 1st st, fpdc around last st of previous round, skip the next st, *hdc in the next st, fpdc around the skipped st (before the last hdc st), skip the next st; repeat from * to end, join with Color A with a sl st in first hdc of round. (72 sts)

Round 7: Continuing with Color A, ch 1, hdc in each st around; join with Color B with a sl st in first hdc of round. (72 sts)

Round 8 - 15: Repeat Rounds 6-7; join with Color C with a sl st at the end of Round 15. (72 sts)

Round 16: Continuing with Color C, repeat Round 6; join with Color A with a sl st in first hdc of round, break Color C. ( 72 sts)

Round 17 - 19: Repeat Round 7, then 6-7; break Color B after Round 18, continue with Color A to join with a sl st at end of round 19. (72 sts)

Round 20: Ch 1, sc in each st around; join with a sl st in first sc of round. (72 sts)

HANDLES NOTE: (Individual tension may mean you need to adjust starting and end points as needed to make the handles centered and matched. The following worked for me, use the stitch counts as a guide for your own bag.)

Round 21: Ch 1, sc in the 1st 22 sts, ch 14, skip 14 sts, sc in the next 22 sts, ch 14, skip the last 14 sts; join with a sl st in the first sc of the round. (72 sts inc chs)

Round 22: Ch 1, sc in each st and ch around; join with a sl st in the first sc of the round. (72 sts)

Round 23 - 24: Ch 1, sc in each st around; join with a sl st in the first sc of the round. (72 sts)

Round 25: Sl st in each st around. Break yarn and finish off.
