Foundation Chain and Base Setup

  • Turn the chain, skip the last chain, and begin working in the back horizontal loop/ridge.
• Row 1:
  • 7 sl st into back loops (count carefully for symmetry).
  • 15 sc into back loops (establish body section).
  • Inc: In next base loop, work 3 sc in same space.
  • Inc: Next loop, repeat 3 sc in same space.
  • 15 sc (mirror first body section).
  • 7 sl st (finish round for even corded side).

Rounds 2–4 (Increases)

Body Construction & Color Changes

• Straight Rounds:
  • Repeat row pattern: 7 sl st at each edge, sc in between, for total of 10 rounds/lines in main color; always ch to turn and work back loop only.
• Color Transition:
  • At end of round 10, ch, cut main yarn leaving tail to weave.
  • Attach contrasting yarn (e.g., yellow/caramel); pull through snug, leave tail.
  • Begin first sl st in the turning space so corded join is neat.
• Middle Section Rows:
  • Work 16 rounds in new color, repeating 7 sl st at each edge and sc in center.
• Returning to Main Color:
  • Finish last round with contrasting color, ch, cut tail, then join original yarn securely as before.

Top Decreases and Shaping

• Straight Top Rows:
  • Work several rows stitch-over-stitch: 7 sl st, sc, 7 sl st.
• Decrease Rows:
  • First Decrease Row:
    • After 7 sl st, work 17 sc.
    • Perform a 3-stitch reduction (dec): pull up loops from three consecutive stitches, yarn over, pull through all.

Save

• • • Repeat dec once more.
    • Finish with 17 sc, then 7 sl st.
  • Plain intermediary row:
    • Work row with no decreases (7 sl st, stitch-over-stitch, 7 sl st).
  • Final Decrease Row:
    • Start with 7 sl st, work 15 sc, perform two dec (as above), finish with 15 sc, 7 sl st.

Assembly & Finishing

• Seaming Sides:
  • Turn bag inside out for invisible seam.
  • Use a small hook to pull up the hidden strand at the base edge.
  • Sew side seams: take outside loop of each stitch on both panels, pull yarn through, sl st up the seam. Work tightly for a crisp join—repeat both sides. Tie off, hide ends.

Save

• Turning Right-Side Out:
  • Carefully turn bag right-side out; adjust corners and edges for a clean, even shape.
• Adding Closure:
  • Attach a magnetic brooch or sew-on snap closure at the center of upper opening, as per video.
• Attaching Handle:
  • Secure chain handle or woven strap to thick reinforced side corners with openable rings for maximum support.

Assembly & Finished Size

• After assembly, your bag will have neat side seams and crisp corners.
• Final size: Approx. 30 cm wide x 20 cm tall x 8 cm deep.
• Handle/strap securely attached; closure positioned for easy use.
