To start with this cro­chet purse pat­tern and mar­ket bags i‑Cord strap project, you’ll need basic cro­chet stitch­es, espe­cial­ly dou­ble cro­chet, sin­gle cro­chet stitch­es, and even the clas­sic granny square bag design. We’ll walk you through the process, pro­vid­ing video tuto­ri­als for dif­fer­ent tech­niques and styles. You can choose the per­fect size and shape for your bag, whether for every­day use, a spe­cial gift, or even for the farm­ers’ mar­ket. Our col­lec­tion of free cro­chet bag pat­terns offers a vari­ety of options, from round beach bags to square gro­cery store totes.

When select­ing the type of yarn for your strap, con­sid­er the sea­son and your pref­er­ences. Cot­ton yarn is pop­u­lar for sum­mer bags, while acrylic yarns can offer a beau­ti­ful tex­ture. On the oth­er hand, T‑shirt yarn is an excel­lent option for a boho or mod­ern cro­chet bag pat­tern. With the right com­bi­na­tion of yarn and hook size, you can cre­ate a com­fort­able and durable strap for per­son­al use.

I will show you how to make a col­or­ful cord using Red Heart mul­ti­col­ored yarn. You can use any yarn and hook to get start­ed. To begin, cre­ate a slip knot on your hook and chain three by yarn­ing over and pulling your yarn through.

Next, insert your hook into the sec­ond chain from the hook, draw up a loop, and then insert your hook again into the last chain and drop your loop. Ensure you hold on to the pre­vi­ous two loops to avoid los­ing them. Yarn over and pull through the first loop, then move to the next loop, insert your hook, grab the last loop, and yarn over and pull through. Final­ly, insert your hook into the last loop on your hook, yarn over, and pull through to com­plete the row for the cord.

You’ll con­tin­ue repeat­ing this pat­tern for the entire cord. Grab the two loops so you don’t lose them, pull through the first loop, insert your hook into those two, and the one loop you dropped, yarn over, and pull through that loop. Insert your hook in the last loop, yarn over, and pull through to repeat the process. Remem­ber to drop those two loops again and hold on to them.

To fin­ish, yarn over and pull through all three loops. Yarn over for a chain one, cut your yarn, weave in your ends, and your cord is com­plete. Thank you for watch­ing, and please con­sid­er sub­scrib­ing for more tuto­ri­als.
