My goodness! You are such a great teacher! Thank you for such a clear and concise video and patiently explaining each step.
Ahh thanks. Glad you like the video!
Crafty Patti if I wanted to make the bag broader, should I be adding strands by 8? Thanks!
You can increase the size by adding 4 strands, 8 strands or 12 strands. Always in sets of four.
Crafty Patti thanks very much! :)
You have explained in a simple way, thanks...
What a wonderful tutor you are! I’m a beginner and believe me all the other tutorials pale into insignificance , they could learn a lot from you on both presentation, communication and precision. Amazing tutorial! I cannot wait to get started. You’ve given me so much confidence I felt as if I had a teacher right next to me. I’ve subscribed, can’t wait to see next tutorial. Thank you so much for giving your time for this video.
Thanks so much Suzanne for taking the time to write a lovely comment. I’m glad I have given you the confidence to try this project!
Fantastic result! I made a bag using 5mm 3 strand cotton, had a slightly shorter handle but still could be worn over the shoulder! Would probably have added 30cm to each strand. Great tutorial, thanks!!
That’s great! Glad you liked your final results! Yes, the thicker cord will definitely take up more length. I used the 3mm.
Great tutorial! And I really like the look of this bag. And the way it is made is super appealing. Using double sided tape is so smart.
Fun summer project! Thanks for watching!
You made me so happy. What a great teacher . Thanks......Enjoy your day.
Ahhh. Glad I made you so happy! Thanks for watching!

Thank you!
Such a great tutorial!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Very well explained and a very clear video. I was not so happy with the handles. But overall very good. Thank you
You can always vary the design for different handles. Or you can attach wooden ring handles for a different look.
Oh! How nice to hear from you. Yes I am thinking of other ways to make a firm handle. Thank you very much for your reply. My wife and me are eager to start on making the bag.
very nice and beautiful
Hi Patty, I’m confused (as a newbie to macrame AND not made a bag before), how did you make the FIRST handle? You show it already completed and then instruct to copy the first one…..as I’m making it for the first time, I don’t already have one to “copy”. It would be so much easier to SHOW the first one, THEN tell people to copy that for the 2nd side.
So to make the 1st handle, I just lay out the two strips of cords and overlap them at the top, trying to make them approx 10.5” and then tape all of it together (12 cords all together)? Thanks in advance for your help. This tutorial is so much nicer than others I’ve watched. Theirs have cords in knots all over the inside….yours is very clean and turned out so beautifully!
You didn’t need to see the first handle being made as I show you how to make it. Once you have made one handle than you can copy that size for your second handle. And just like you said above. Try and make your handle measure about 10.5” like I showed in the video.
Very nice and easy👍👌😍💚💙
This is mesmerising. Thank you for sharing. I've ordered everything needed and am sending it to my sister in London as a covid project 💕👭🏻
There you go. Good plan.! Team work!
Thank you so much 🌷🙏

Finished the bag 🙂. It is so nice!
Yeah! Glad it worked out well for you.

Thank you for this tutorial. It was so easy to follow and I love that you made it from the bottom up! Just wondering what I would need to do to make a bigger bag?
Yes you can! I sent a reply to you.
I really enjoyed your video,beautiful work thank you.
Thank you so much!!💕💕💕
It was up 2 years ago and I only discovered macrame bag recently. I had made a similar one where I have to tie knots at the bottom but the bottom of this bag is neat and clean. I am eyeing for make up macrame pouch without separate zipper attachment and uses only wood en beads for closing the pouch
Many ways to vary this bag. I prefer the tidy bottom as well.
Super 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻your explanation is awesome
Thank you so much 🙂
Thank you Patty!
Can I do 1 side of the bag first, then do the other side or I have to do it simultaneously ?
You will only be able to go so far and then you will have to join in the sides, so yes you have to do both front & back simultaneously.
Thank you sm!! Made my own instantly, I love it ❤️
Perfect. Your very welcome!
Love this
Glad you like it!
Glad you love it!
I love this! Thank youuu ❤️

Dear Patti, I made it! It turned out great. It's gonna be a Christmas gift for my friend! I really thank you so much! You explained in a simple way. Happy holidays to you and your family!
Thanks for taking the time to write a comment. Much appreciated. Glad you were happy with the results! Happy Holidays to you too!
YOU ARE THE BEST!! Thank youuu
Thanks so much Josie!
If I were to cut the length in half (32 x 1.5 meters) would that make the bag half the size? I like this pattern better than any I have found on the internet, however I don’t want it as big. Would it maybe be better to do 2 meters per cord?
Always better to have too much cord rather than not enough so I would go with the 2 metre lengths for a shorter bag.
Crafty Patti thank you! So helpful and quick :) I’m subscribing!
Your very welcome. The shorter bag will be cute. It stretches out so will still be useful for many things. Thanks for subscribing.
Thank you 😊
Your welcome.
Thank You :) I did it and I'm so happy :) This is so good and simple explanation.
Yeah! Glad it turned out well for you!
Awesome job!

My voice will translate into words on the screen into your language.
If I want to make it wider, do I have to add extra 4 or 8 stripes?
4 more cords will give you 8 strands. So decide if that is wide enough for you. If not than add 2 more each time for extra width. So 6,8,10 etc. Keep in mind that you will have to alter the pattern a bit when you get to the handles.
Very tidy bag design. Looks strong too. With 3mm string and the 32 strands, what is the approximate width of the bag? Will it be able to hold broad round items like a football or do I have to use more strands?
It measures about 11” (28cm) in width. It has some give to it so yes you probably could get a football in there.
Excelente, gracias
Your welcome!
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts Hola, lo estoy haciendo en este momento,espero me salga igual de hermoso que el tuyo.
Translation:
@Crafty Patti Hi, I'm doing it right now, I hope it comes out just as beautiful as yours.
I'm sure it will be just as beautiful!
¡Estoy seguro de que será igual de hermoso!
Can I make that bag with 2,5 meter long cords? I was following a different tutorial but I didn’t like it.
You can. Your bag will just be shorter than the one I made, which is fine because it stretches lots. Just don’t do as many rows of the square knots so you have enough left over for your handles.
Precioso👏👏❤❤

Thank you for your comment. I’m sorry but I am not able to put subtitles in Spanish.
Perfect!
Amazing. I've found some really tough natural fiber I've turned into thin ropes. I will weave a shopping bag like this with my new fibers. I can't find the length of rope to use for each strand.
I cut 32 pieces at 3 metres (3yds 10”) each.
Amei 💕🇧🇷
Thanks!
This looks great! Would it be ok to use 4.5mm cord instead of 3mm?
Yes you can. A thicker cord will take up more length so make sure you cut your first strands a lot longer. The finished bag will be a bit larger as well
This is beautifully made! Can I ask you, Patti -- approximately how many hours would you say this bag took you to make? Just wondering what is reasonable to expect for a timeline! Thank you :)
It is so hard to time my projects as I design as I go, I organize how I’m going to present the steps of the video, I am setting up camera and editing all at the same time. So it would have to be a guesstimate on time spent to complete this bag from start to finish. So maybe between 2 to 3 hours.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts A guestimate is great -- thank you!
非常棒
Translation:
Great
谢谢
Thank you
hey lovely macrame makers! just a quick tip, if you type, macrame cord in bulk, into google you can get it for half the prise that amazon sells it for! :)
Good to know. Thanks for your comment!
this looks so good am wondering I have some precut 200cm lengths already could I use them and would it make the bag smaller or should I just go with the length you have stated :) thanks
I used 3 metre lengths and you are hoping to use 2 metre lengths. If you want to use up your cut cords than you could make a smaller bag. I would suggest making it a bit narrower and you will not be able to macrame as many rows as I did. 1/3 less rows. You need enough left over for the handles. This bag stretches a lot so a smaller bag will still be useful.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts thanks I decided to use the 3mt anyway and will use my smaller cords for other projects :) so far its looking great and am excited to see the finished bag
Great. Glad you got it worked out.
Thank you for the nice Tutorial! I want to try it out, but i only have macrame cord with 4mm. Is there something i should make different? Like, how long do i have to cut the cords instead? Thank you, for your help!
A thicker cord will definitely take up more cord length. I cut my strands 3 meters long using the 3mm cord. To be really safe for the 4mm cord I would cut each strand 4 meters long. If you don’t have enough macrame cord than try 3.7 meters long for each strand.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts Thank you☺️
I’m confused. So do you cut 32 pieces of macrame cord at 3 yards each? If it is at 3 meters each, then it does not make sense that they are so long.
I try and give both measurements. Yes, you cut 32 pieces at 3 metres each or that would be 3 yds 10”. Remember that you will be folding each cord in half. Now your cords will be 1.5 metres long.
When you say 16 rows, do you mean on each side? Or all together?
16 rows for each side.
Hello wonderful tutorial. Can you tell me the finished size of the bag please.
28x28cm or 11x11” for the size of the bag not including handles.
Did anyone else feel an ASMR vibe when listening to the audio? I was super relaxed!
Wow! That’s great that you had a good experience with the audio. I myself never experienced it but I try and pick easy listening pieces. Thanks for watching!
Can you tell me which rows have side square knots?
That will make it more difficult. Just remember that you are doing alternating square knots. When you have 2 cords left over on each side than you know that those will create a side with a square knot. Using two cords from the back and two cords from the front.
How do you prevent the square knots from coming loose?
If the square knots are being formed correctly and you tighten each knot than they should not be coming loose.
thank you for your video! a question, what are the final dimentions of this bag? - Anastasia
28x28cm (11x11”)
💖👍
Glad you like it!
how many meters is needed in each cord?
I cut 32 cord lengths at 3 metres each
Hello! I want to start my own macrame bag business. Can you give me any advice about copyright and what is free macrame pattern means. Thank you!
I don’t know the laws on copyright for handmade items. It’s a fine line. As far as I’m concerned if the artist is giving away their pattern for free or showing how to do it for free then one should be able to make it and sell it. Thats just my opinion. Here’s a bit of info that I found online.
Every creative work is automatically copyright from the time that it is expressed in tangible form. Yes, this applies to handmade, fiber arts.
Yes, both copying a paper rendition of the design and copying the fiber work are both copyright infringment.
Having the same "idea" is OK. Copying what they have done (without permission) is not.
Crafty Patti thank you so much for looking in to it! Really appreciate this ❤️
I cut 31 pieces and then run out of macrame cord! Is there a way of adjusting the pattern so I don't need 32 pieces? :(
Oh dear. Just keep to groupings of 4. So instead of 32 try 28 pieces. You will have to adjust the pattern a bit when you come to forming the handles.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts Thanks for the help!
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts Hi Patti! I also accidentally used 28 pieces instead of 32 - how would you suggest adjusting the handles? I am having a hard time figuring it out! Would hate to lost all the work I did to get to this point. Thanks in advance for any tips you have!
It took me quite a bit of time to work this out for you. If you only have 28 strands for the front and the back then here is a solution so you can finish your bag. So you will have 14 strands for each handle on the front and back of the bag. The first square knot on the left will be made with 3 cords instead of 4. So you just wrap around 1 cord instead of 2. Next two square knots as regular. The fourth square knot just 3 cords again. Alternate your square knots as shown in the video. The only difference is your side knots with one less cord. At 16:05 time stamp I wrap around 4 cords. You will only wrap around 3 cords. You will have 1 less cord for the remainder of the rows.
Can I use 4mm cotton twisted macrame cord?
Right now it is more difficult to get supplies so I say use what you have. It will turn out a bit bigger but that is fine. A thicker cord will definitely take up more cord length. I cut my strands 3 meters long using the 3mm cord. To be really safe for the 4mm cord I would cut each strand 4 meters long. If you don’t have enough macrame cord than try 3.7 meters long for each strand.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts thank you! Do you have any suggestions where to get 3mm?
I buy all my macrame cord from Amazon. I noticed that they are out of stock of the tosnail cord that I used in this video. Any twisted cord is fine.
Here's a link for some 3mm cord that is in stock right now. amzn.to/2VFYoQa
