I started out looking at potholder tutorials and then while searching how to make a crochet backpack with hardware, I stumbled upon your video. I'll continue my search for the backpack but this is a REALLY GREAT looking purse and I definitely want to try it. Thanks for sharing! 👍🙏 Edit: I found YOUR really awesome backpack tutorial and although I wasn't sure how to sew it, you showed how to sew this purse and I'm no longer confused. Thanks! 👍😊
Thank you so much for this great tutorial. I think that you are one of the best teachers in the art of crochet. You explain everything very clearly and you also show it very precisely 👌🏻👏🏻🫶🏻
I love the pattern and purse. I will gather the materials and start this project. Thank you, thus is gorgeous and your teaching i love and your focusing the camera for an awesome viewing is fantastic, again thank you.
Hi everyone. Bag done. Not as beautiful as Catherine's but it is a good start. My bag warps a bit. Maybe because of the thread : 3mm polypropylène swan. Still it looks good. I will do it again. Take care
hello dear, in this video here, I show how to sew parts together using slip stitches ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-B61Ja0cMMKE.html (minute 33:30) maybe this helps ❤️
I loved your tutorial. You were definitely thorough. I would’ve loved to watch you apply the hardware. I am ordering macrame yarn immediately and making this. 😊. Thank you for the inspiration. 💐
Thank you so much, happy to hear that you like the tutorial ❤️ to see how the lock is fixed, you can check out my current tutorial here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5kJBkMROLL8.html (from minute 28:49 on). There is a different kind of lock but the method to fix it is the same 😊
Hello madam thankyou for teaching but please teach the end even that of 41stiches for beginners and secondly if we increase the size by taking extra chains like instead of 41 if we increase the length and width than how many chains for side how to calculate.please tell❤
I really love the way she teaches step by step not like some people😂😂 thanks honey i will try this hope i will get it right😅😅 ❤ but you didn't show us how to fix the chain😢😢😢
Just found your video, I had some yarn that I didn't know what to do with, it was too rough for a piece of clothing. But now I'm making a bag for my sister, so thankyou! ❤
@catherinecrochet I will definitely send you a picture via your website when it's done! Can I ask as well, which rows do we repeat? I'm autistic and struggle with patterns, but I can watch and copy.
Beautiful handbag and luxurious work. However, I have one comment regarding the fastening of the bag's ear. I think it's an unfortunate attachment because the closure carries the entire weight of the bag and its contents.
Thank you for your feedback! You are of course right, in the way the D-Rings are placed here, the lock carries the weight. However, it is a rather small bag that normally only carries my phone, card and key when I wear it so I haven't experienced any problems with the D-Rings in this place 😊 If you increase its size so that it can carry more, the D-Rings can be placed on the side panels.
I love a good *jklux* because it helps me decide if I want to buy the real thing or NOT." That part right there. That's IT. I feel like people stigmatize dupes but for me, I pause on large purchases that are trendy or when I feel the overconsumption mania setting in FOR ME. (It's something I struggle with LOL! I'm easily convinced to buy things I don't wear or use. They'll literally have the tags and I'll even forget I bought something and have 2 or 3 of them in my closet.) Love this video!
To work faster I recommend you try clover hook on next tutorial. It helps yarn glide thru and would make these stitches for bags more comfortable to do. Hope it helps.
Thank you for your lesson! I have reviewed many times and crocheted 3 bags according to your master class. In all bags, the upper right edge is higher than the left. I counted the number of loops, followed the process, but in the middle of the process, the right side begins to increase diagonally, and the finishing side is not uneven as a result. How can this be changed? And the sides are also uneven in height - one corner is higher. Help please🙏🏾
Hello!! I want to know the size of this bag, it is really beautiful, I am crocheting one, but I am not sure about how large the bag is, mine looks bigger than this one. Thank you 😍
Hi! Great tutorial! I wonder what you think about the quality of the chains and metal parts you recommend. Will they stay in a gold/silver color or will they turn into brons when you wear them a lot? Do you have experience with that?
Hey, thank you! 😊 I wear the beige bag that I make in the tutorial quite a lot. Only on the lower part there is a tiny spot where the gold fades a little, the top part looks like on the first day.
Thank you! 😊 Its difficult to say what the mistake could be without seeing it but I could imagine (given that it is bending so much) that you might have skipped stitches. So e.g. you made the pull through stitches through loops to far left and not below you current stitch 🤔
Hey, I just posted a part two where I'm more detailed about these things. You will find it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-noyqpKKRWPE.html 😊 Let me know if this helps!
Hey, I buy everything for this tutorial from Amazon 😊 you will find the links in the Video description. In general, you can also find good material on Etsy.
Thank you 😃❤️ I havent tried raffia yet but I think it wont get as stiff as the shown bag so it wont stay in shape very well. If you would like to try it anyway, I would definitely recommend to sew plastic canvas to the inside. 😊
Thank you so much :) the pattern would of course appear bigger/ finer (depending on thicker or finer yarn) and it can be that thicker yarn makes less sturdy.
Thank you! ❤️ When I work with 3mm yarn, I normally use a 3.5 mm hook. You can also try to work with a 3mm hook to get a tighter pattern but personally, I think that when yarn and hook are the same size, it doesn't "grab" the yarn very well.
7:26 Πολύ ωραία τσάντα. Όμως δε βλέπω το πλεκτο επειδή έχετε βάλει τη μετάφραση των αγγλικών πάνω στο σχέδιο και πάνω στο πλεκτο. Επίσης, να μας πεις λεπτομέρειες για το πως θα πλεξω το χερούλι, πως Θ βάλω την αλυσίδα στο χερούλι και πως θα το τοποθετήσω στη τσάντα. Δεν καταλαβαίνω τίποτα επειδή δεν ξέρω αγγλικά
good evening, I can't understand how many stitches need to be made at the beginning and end of each round in addition to those you demonstrated, so I really can't work this beautiful stitch, can you help me? thank you very much, I am writing from Italy
Я рада, что вам нравится сумка! ❤😊 Русские субтитры активированы, вы должны иметь возможность включить их через настройки видео. (Happy to hear that you like the bag. The russian subtitles are actvated yu should be able to switch them on in the video settings)
Я трижды перевязываю, нет, не выходит! Я новичок в этом деле! Это моя третья сумка, но без подсчета петель и сколько провязывать, не получается! Если остановить видео и посчитать, то не получается, вы закрываете пальцем! Но вижу что где-то не так! То не так закончен ряд, то не так узор косится! Съезжает первый узор, сильно по диагонали 🤷♀️ вначале не понятно, набрано 40 петель, получается 39 во втором ряду , и не сходится с рисунком, если набрать на одну больше и плюс воздушную, то первый ряд 40, второй 41🙄😭😭😭 но, ничего! Буду пробовать! И у меня получиться! Нет схемы? Или по какому примеру вязали?
Bonjour à vous, vraiment sublimes vos sacs, j'aimerais réaliser ce modèle, j'arrive bien à suivre les explications, pensez-vous qu'il serait possible d'utiliser un cordon polyester soyeux plus épais (200 gr - 120m, 3mm) ou plus fin (200gr -280m, 2mm) , je crains de modifier les dimensions du sac, merci par avance de bien vouloir m'indiquer quel fil serait le plus judicieux. BIEN MERCI
Bonjour Catherine, j'aime beaucoup ce sac, je suis en train de le réaliser. Juste une petite remarque si je peux me permettre, dommage que vous ne donniez pas le nombre de maille à la fin des rangs. Celà nous aiderez bien pour vérifier et pour ne pas se tromper. Merci encore pour cette vidéo. Prenez bien soin de vous. Brigitte ☺☺
The bag is do beautiful, I would want to make one. But l am finding it difficult to get the exact knitting cord you used, please do you have any suggestion for me❤❤❤❤❤
Hey, I never made a full bag of this style in 2mm cotton macrame but just tested to crochet a few rows of the pattern. So in general, it is possible to make the pattern but I had to use a 4 mm hook to get a good grip on the yarn. This and the fact that cotton macrame is much stiffer would result in a bag that is bigger than the one in the video. Furthermore, it might be that you can't squeeze the handle together very well due to the stiffness of the yarn.
Hlw tnx for this video , i want try it my self bt i dont know that this crochet threads name , because many more type of this so plz share the yann name , quality and price ,and again tnx for this amazing tutorial.
I ordered all the material for this bag on Amazon :) you will find the links in the Video description. In generell, you can also find nice Material on Etsy.
