class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2728 <strong>SECTION 1 \u2014 Crocheting the Base of the Bag<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The bag begins with an oval-shaped base, which gives the handbag a flat bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 1: Create a Foundation Chain<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Using <strong>Color A<\/strong>, chain <strong>36\u201340 chains<\/strong> depending on how wide you want the bag.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 2: Begin Working Around the Chain<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You are going to crochet <em>around<\/em> the chain to form an oval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Round 1<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sc in the second chain from hook.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sc across all chains.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Put <strong>3 sc into the last chain<\/strong> to turn.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work back down the other side of the chain.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Put <strong>2 sc into the final chain<\/strong> to complete the oval.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Join with a slip stitch.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This creates a long oval shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 3: Build Up the Base<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Repeat rounds adding increases only at the curved ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Round 2\u20134<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sc around the oval.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increase by making <strong>2 sc in each corner stitch<\/strong> at both ends.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This widens and flattens the base.<br>Stop when the base is the size you want\u2014typically <strong>28\u201332 cm<\/strong> long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2728 <strong>SECTION 2 \u2014 Crocheting the Textured Body (Burgundy)<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The signature look of the bag comes from its textured cluster (or puff) stitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 4: Start the Sides of the Bag<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Work <strong>1 round of sc<\/strong> all the way around the base edge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This helps the sides transition upward.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 5: Begin the Textured Stitch Pattern<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Repeat the following rows for about <strong>15\u201320 rows<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cluster Stitch Pattern<\/strong> (Simple Version)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chain 2, <em>yarn over, insert hook into the same stitch, pull up a loop<\/em>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Repeat this 3 times<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Yarn over and pull through all loops<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chain 1 to secure<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Skip next stitch<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make next cluster in next stitch<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Go all around. Join with sl st.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This creates the bubble\/pebble texture seen in the burgundy part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\"

measures <strong>about 20\u201322 cm tall<\/strong> or your desired height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tie off Color A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2728 <strong>SECTION 3 \u2014 Crocheting the

Round<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make one round of <strong>sc<\/strong> to clean up the top of the textured section.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 8: Create the Decorative Shell Stitch Section<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This stitch adds elegance and a nice transition to the handles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Shell Stitch:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>5 dc in one stitch<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Skip 2 stitches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 sc in next stitch<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Skip 2 stitches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat shell<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Work 3\u20135 rounds of these shells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 9: Add Straight Rows for Strength<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Add <strong>3\u20134 rows of hdc<\/strong> or <strong>sc<\/strong> after the shell section.<br>These straight rows help stabilize the handle area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2728 <strong>SECTION 4 \u2014 Creating the Handles<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The bag in the image has sturdy crocheted handles, made separately then attached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 10: Making the Handles<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Make <strong>2 handles<\/strong>, each about <strong>35\u201345 cm<\/strong> long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Basic Handle Pattern<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chain 70\u201380<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Row 1: Sc in each stitch<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Row 2\u20135: Sc across<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tie off and make one more<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This creates a strong, thick strap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can make the handles thicker by adding more rows if you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\"
