Crochet Stylish Striped Bag Rucksack with Strap

2023-09-16

Hello My Crochet Friends!

bags, rucksacks, sacks, purses and market bags - this is my favorite topic for crocheting and also for a gift not only for my girlfriends and friends, family, but as I always say - it will please basically anyone who you want to make happy with a crocheted gift.
Today I have prepared for you a very easy tutorial for a simple bag - like a backpack or a rucksack - with a strap for tying.

This bag is so stylish and beautiful and practical and the structure allows to stretch to hold many items during grocery. It is true simple, very cozy and comfortable.
 
The bag has a simple design and you can crochet it bigger or smaller, wider or narrower - according to your needs and taste. The bag is easy to customize and its shape allows you to hold many things, it is suitable also for school or exercise. This bag is great for trips to the farmers market, library, or summer days at the beach. It is large enough to fit everything you need, and can also fold up for easy storage and travel. 

I chose the very pleasant Gardenya Cake yarn from Vlnika, which has beautiful tone-on-tone color transitions.

The bag is crocheted with double crochet stitches and even beginners can handle it, it is crocheted from the bottom up, first as a circle, which we gradually change into a square and then shape into a 4-sided bag.
