Simple but Trendy Crochet Bag for Beginners

 

Hello friends,

Here is my next simple creation, a trendy bag. I have gaurentee that you will love to make this bag. It's so simplt that even beginners can make it.

I used Vardhman Millenium yarn and 3,5 mm hook. It's width is 10", Height maximum 11" and minimum 5". Moreover you will need one handle and some show buttons. It's weight is 80 gm. Instead of using such ready made belt, you can make it your own handmade belt using this video,

PATTERN:   Make rectangle with 7" to 8" width. For this we make chs 35 +1.

R1: sc1 in each chain starting from second. (Length of this is 7.5")

R2: ch1 turn, sc1 in each st till end (35)

Repeat R2 till the length of the piece becomes 7.5 x 3 = 22.5".

We work till 63 stips means 126 rows and it's length is 22.5". Means our piece is 22.5" x 7.5".

Divide the piece in 3 parts and place markers. Now fold lower left corner up to the marker. 

Then fold top right corner at base as shown. 

Then fold middle square part diagonally, the required shape of the purse is here. Sew the sides as per need by tapestry needle (watch video). 

Also sew belt.

Also you can decorate it with whatever things you have to decorate.

Crochet Baby Frock for 2-3 Years Baby, Crochet Dress for Baby

 

Hello friends,

Winter had already arrived in India. It's 13 degree celcius here and I know that my friends will love to make Cute dress for small princess in the family, may be daughter or grand daughter. Hence I made a beautiful baby frock for 2-3 years baby. It's very simple design (as winter has been already started so you are in hurry to make it).

My friend brought this yarn from London, it's name "The Women's Institute Soft and Silky", it's really fantastic but thin than the yarn I used generally. So it took more time to complete. I had a new experience of this yarn. Hook delebrately I used 3.5 mm so that my subscriber's measurement should not get wrong.

PATTERN: Start with Acqua color. Make chains till it's length is 13". I have to make 65 chs (this number should be odd). Make 2 more and  then,

R1: dc1 in each ch starting from 3rd ch (65 sts).

R2: ch2 (not considered as dc), [dc1 in one st, (dc2) in next] rep till end (97 sts). (We have 32 pair of dcs and 33 single dcs)

R3: ch2, [dc1 in one st, V(dc1, ch1, dc1) in the gap between pair of dcs made in next st (shown bold above), fpdc 1 on single dc next] rep till end. Lastly normal dc on last st (not fpdc) (we have 32 Vs)

R4: ch2, dc1 on first st, [ V on V, bpdc on fpdc made in last round] rep till end, lastly dc 1 on last st.

R5: ch2, dc1 on first st, [ V on V, fpdc on bpdc made in last round] rep till end, lastly dc 1 on last st.

R6: ch2, dc1 on first st, [ Shell (dc2, ch1, dc2) on V, bpdc on fpdc made in last round] rep till end, lastly dc 1 on last st.

R7: ch2, dc1 on first st, [ Shell (dc2, ch1, dc2) on V, fpdc on bpdc made in last round] rep till end, lastly dc 1 on last st.

R8: ch2, dc1 on first st, [ Shell (dc2, ch1, dc2) on V, bpdc on fpdc made in last round] rep till end, lastly dc 1 on last st.

R9: ch2, dc1 on first st, [ Shell (dc2, ch1, dc2) on V, fpdc on bpdc made in last round] rep till end, lastly dc 1 on last st.

R10: ch2, dc1 on first st, [ Shell (dc2, ch1, dc2) on V, bpdc on fpdc made in last round] rep till end, lastly dc 1 on last st. We have 32 shells.

Measure the length of yoke, it's 4" if not make one more round.

Border: Join pink yarn at first st, ch1, sc1, ch3, [6dc-poopcorn in ch2-sp of shell, then at centre-gap make, (sc1, ch3, sc1, ch4, sc1, ch3, sc1), ch3, join by sc on fpdc-st, ch3] rep till end. (32 rose buds)

Now let's make button band and button hole band.

Join acqua yarn at first st and make 

R1: ch1, sc1 in each dc-space till end. (20 sts)

R2: ch1 turn, sc1 in each st, BO

Similarly make other band.

Now we divide 32 budss of yoke in 5 parts as follows.

4 buds for one back side + 8 buds space for sleeve + 8 buds space for front + 8 bud space for other sleeve + 4 bud space for other back side. Markers shown by blue.

                                              

Join acqua col yarn in first st so as to work on wrong side.

R1: ch1, sc1 in same st, ch2, sc1 in bpdc-st, (ch6, sc1 in bpdc-st) rep till marker, then ch6, then sc 1 in next marker's place. (These 6 chs are underarm stitches. Then again (ch6, sc1 in bpdc-st) rep till marker. then ch6 (underarm sts), then sc 1 in next marker's place again (ch6, sc1 in bpdc-st) rep till end. At last ch2, sl st in first sc-st. So that now we can work in round.

R2: (fpdc on sc, dc6 in ch6-sp) rep till marker, then dc6 in ch6-sp of under arm, fpdc on next sc-st, again (dc6, fpdc) in each of 8 ch6-spaces, again 6dc in underarm chs and fpdc 1 then 3dc in ch2-sp and 3 dc in next ch2-sp, cl. (We have total 114 dc sts and 19 fpdcs, total 133 sts)

Note that first fpdc means fpsc, ch2.

R3: (dc6, fpdc1) rep 19 times, cl

R4: same as R3

R5: [dc1 on 5 dc-sts, (dc2) next, fpdc] 19 times, cl. )19 sts increased. (152 sts)

Repeat R5  six to seven times.

Then increase stitch at the beginning means,

R: [(dc2) in first dc-st,  dc1 in 6 sts, fpdc 1] 19 times, cl. (19 sts increased) (171 sts). 

Repeat this round till the required height of the frock or till 19". For this much height I have to make 30 rounds and I increase the stitches only twice. First we have 19 groups of (dc6, fpdc1) for 3-4 rounds then 19 groups of (dc7, fpdc1) for nearly 13-14 rounds and lastly 19 groups of (dc8, fpdc1) for nearly 13-14 rounds.

Now let's make frill type border or ruffle border by pink yarn. Join pink at back side st.

R1: dc1 in each st (even in fpdc-st also), cl. (171)

R2: dc3 in each st, cl (513 sts)

R3: dc1 in each st, cl (513sts)

Now let us make pocket for the frock as kids generally like to have pocket. Pocket I made by 2.5 mm hook. Ofcourse you can use 3.5 mm also only then size will be little bigger.

Pocket: Make Rose by pink as explained in my previous post. 

Now let's make granny square from this rose flower. With pink color itself make one more round.

R1: sc1 on sc-st, (ch4, sc 1 on next sc-st) rep 8 times, cl. BO.

Join Acqua color yarn at ch4-sp. 

R2: [shell (dc3, ch2, dc3) in ch4-sp, ch1, dc3 in next ch4-sp, ch1] 4 times, cl.

R3: [shell on shell at corner, ch1, (dc3 in ch1-sp, ch1) 2 times,] 4 times, cl. BO,

Front part of the pocket is ready, now back part we shall make very simple, (no rose etc). Using Acqua yarn,

R1: in magic loop, (dc3, ch2) 4 times, cl. sl st till ch2-sp

R2: [in ch2-sp make shell (dc3, ch2, dc3), ch1] 4 times, cl. sl st till ch2-sp of shell. 

R3: [ in ch2-sp make shell, ch1, dc3 in next ch1-sp, ch1] 4 times, cl

R4: [ at corner shell, ch1, (dc3 in ch1-sp, ch1) 2 times] 4 times, cl.

Then join these two parts of pocket by pink yarn with hdc in each st as well as hdc a in ch1-sp taking sts from both panels. At corner make, (hdc1, ch2, hdc1) repeat throughout.

Then make belt according to size where you have to sew the pocket. I made 5" to 6"  (30 to 35 chs) and sew the ends as shown in video.
