This modern crochet bag pattern is essentially a single rectangle that is folded and sewn to form a pocket. It is the perfect pattern to use for your very first crochet bag because it is super simple and is a fun and relatively quick project. This bag is definitely not limited to being worn as a crossbody bag; it can be worn as a shoulder bag or, with a shorter handle, a handbag. However, I’ve found that the shape of this bag makes it the perfect crossbody bag. It has this V cut-out that gives space for your body unlike other bags that have to bend.
This is a great pattern to use if you have never crocheted a bag before because it’s really just a crocheted rectangle. The shape of this bag makes it look like it’s more complicated and intricate than it is and definitely makes it more fun than a basic rectangular bag.
This pattern also exclusively uses a single stitch: the double crochet. This stitch is one of the basic crochet stitches that every beginner should know and it works up fast, and so does this bag.
