Japanese knot bag - summer crochet bag pattern

Hey friends☀️
It's nearly summertime and I can't stop making cute crochet bags to match my summer outfits! Today I want to share with you a new design I came up with, inspired by Japanese knot bags😊
You will need:
thick cotton yarn for hook size 6-7, I am using Gründl King Cotton x 3 (150 g or 225m)
crochet hook size 6
tapestry needle
scissors
This pattern is beginner-friendly and so satisfying to make! The finished bag measures around 20 cm in width and 33 cm in height (longer strap included).
Let me know if you have any questions! I hope you enjoy this tutorial🧡

There are many versions of this bag but to me the beauty of it is in its simplicity. I love this version the most. Thank you. ❤

I've watched a lot of knot bag tutorials but this one surpasses them all. The simplicity of the stitch is really effective plus I love the construction. It is so much more attractive than adding straps on after to the body. This is my next project. Thankyou.

Thank you for sharing❤ Could you tell me what the width(cm) of the each strap is? I am trying this with different sizes of yarn and hook. Thank you in advance.😊

Hi! If i wanted to make it bigger, how should i increase the number of stitches and rows?

[@nurain4525]

just multiply every rows, i did multiply 1,3 in every rows

[@flamepanda5837]

Could i use a 5 mm hook?

[@manuelanolte8221]

Super gemacht , ich möchte sie größer machen , kannst du mir sagen wie ?

[@emmadecaux639]

hi ! I started the bag but i’m using raffia I did 3 rows and my 3 rows are twisting I wanted to know if this is normal or if I should crochet with a higher tension?
thank you 😌

[@woodoristudio]

Hi! Usually tension only adds twisting, so I would try to crochet more loosely or size up the hook☺️

[@alyzehuertas9753]

Do you drop a stitch when you start the second half of the small strap because the math doesn’t add up? You’d have 36 stitches left if you start in the 29th stitch not 35?… or am i wrong??

Says a lot when you need help and you're ignored, will steer clear.

[@silviapagliaro5052]

The small strap how cm is?

[@milenamilacic3410]

How you count rows, for me it is like 10, please answer me, I am just doing this. 20 its going to be too high.

[@SandraJane-bd8im]

Great the teacher doesn't answer when you need help 😮

[@dhey_viant]

Can I use 4ply milk yarn?

[@valerietrattler6895]

I have 100% cotton medium 4. Would that work?
