The Rag Bag! Crocheting around fabric
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.ย. 2024
- This video is called The Rag Bag because much like a rag rug, it's made by crocheting around fabric with yarn. It's a very fun and simple project that you can completely customize with different colored fabrics and yarns and changing the size or the shape. I can't wait to see what you come up with!

Ginell, you're my kind of craftswoman. Creative, stylish and you make changes as needed in the "heat" of the work. I just stumbled on to your vlog a couple of days ago and love the clean, polished product. No loving hands at home made it!
Thank you Barbara ❤️ Welcome to the channel!
I thought I was going to learn to sew when I retired, so I bought a machine and I have lots of fabric. Then I found crochet and I became HOOKED! (Pun intended!) Now I can combine my crocheting with all of the lovely fabric that’s been in a tote for the last 4 years!
I made two quilts and thought that meant I would sew forever, but yes I too prefer crochet. I'm glad your fabric will go to good use ❤️
All things told, crochet is more portable. It's dangerous to whip out the sewing machine on a road trip, and I think I've seen a whopping one person manage it on a plane.
My mom dropped off a bunch of fabric and yarn last night. I went to bed wondereding what I could do with it all. Your video showed up this morning in my feed for the first time! Sometimes I think TH-cam reads my mind. Lol
Your use of changes in fabric and yarn tension and your relaxed approach when creating solutions, inspires me. Thank you
Oh my gosh I feel like that happens to me a lot too. It's kind of scary, but also pretty useful 😁. I'm glad you liked the video ❤️
When i was a child we used to make what we called rag rugs, these were made in exactly the same way but with old tags from t-shirts, old bed linen etc. It's nice to see these forms of crafting while recycling make the rounds again!
I think those would be awesome
FIRST. THANK YOU FOR THIS NEW TO ME way to combine YARN and FABRIC. I'm a 'creative creature' (LOL). I am a quilter. My husband wishes I would only quilt. Personally, I dabble with many different crafts. I've been able to prove to hubby how it is possible to combine different crafts and the required necessary materials with my #1 hobby of sewing. I.E. beads, paint, dyes, hand embroidery, YARN and of course FABRIC. I have a small quest room filled with all supples and then some😅. I've been down sizing those other craft supplies. However, I just couldn't let go of my yarn supplies. Crocheting is one craft that I really enjoy when needing to rest and cope with disabling pain flare-ups (Desert Storm veteran). Crocheting is my " go to friend" for mental mindless machine. It's my best PILL with little to none side effects. Can't use sewing machine while lying in bed. LOL. I so excited about this NEW idea of yours, that I'm know what I'm going to do while hubby drives us to various places that are more than 15-30 minutes away. Can't wait to watch more of your videos. Thanks again for sharing your talents.
First, thank you so much for your service and for what you sacrificed for your country! I too am all over the board when it comes to crafts. I just recently had to downsize a lot of the supplies I have saved up for years in order to begin moving across the country and I have promised myself I won't accumulate that much again. My daughter used to work at a craft store so I got the family discount and that just added to my closets full of goodies. I am so glad you have something that gives you joy even when you are in pain and I'm glad I got to help inspire you. ❤️ Welcome to the channel!
We all have unused fabric. Love your work.
I have STASH ACQUISITION BEYOND LIFE EXPECTANCY!!
Lol...yes, I think I have yarn and projects that will outlast my life too.
I would love to see you do this bag with reused items like old t-shirts or plastic bags ❤
Old t-shirts YES and someone mentioned thrifted sheets. I in fact have a stack of old sheets I was about to give away that maybe should be made into strips. I used plastic bags to fill my scrappy pumpkin in that video but I have since been informed and have started to notice that most plastic bags are biodegradable now so they lose structure pretty quickly. Also, in Tennessee I can find plastic bags everywhere but in Oregon they are pretty scarce. Your name has PNW in it so you probably know. Great ideas!
Very creative,i have many old teeshirts which I can’t donate cause they stained .I finally understood how to make the oval shape after getting confused every single time 😂 thanks a lot ❤
I love the idea of using old T-shirts ♥️
@@GinellCooper 🥰 hopefully it works 🥲
hi! just passing thru...this bag is fab! i'll be making them for myself and gifts. i'm a quilter and crocheter so i already have everything i need. large, medium and small - comin' up! hooray to us pencil holders... 🤠🤠
Yaaay, you're in the club! ✏️❤️
This is the same or very similar technique used in the cobblestone cowl (paid) using two different yarn weights. The chunky/bulky weight is the one you crochet over but you sk a chain to have it show more. I knew I had done this stitching before in making rugs.....I guess it's good I've lived long enough to recognize an old remake of a pattern into something wearable instead of walking on or carrying. This weave look can also be done with Tunisian crochet as in the brushland wrap pattern which is a freebie.
♥️
It's really a cute idea. . I can use not so perfect anymore (stash that has faded areas from a sunny window) or fabric that was printed off grain, or not the best quality fabric in the stash. Also good for "what was I thinking" purchases that are no longer our style.
I bought a bunch of Thomas the Tank Engine fabric with the plan to make a quilt for my son when he was about 7 or 8. I just got rid of that fabric since we are in the process of downsizing and also my son is now 20 😁
@@GinellCooperIt would have been so hilarious to make it anyway and send it to him.
@@SewardWriter yes, I can see him rolling his eyes and shaking his head but secretly loving it already
@@GinellCooper And showing it off to his friends, who all go, "Man.... I want one!"
This is beautiful, I do the same thing to make baskets but, I use the fabric as the yarn and 1/4 inch rope as fabric that is enclosed... they stand up very well.. I started crocheting using 2 inch fabric strips as yarn to make rugs... using used sheets that I got at thrift stores... also rugs made from old t-shirts make very soft beautiful rugs...
Thank you and those are great ideas! ❤️
My husband knows how much I enjoy crocheting and weaving thrifted sheets and plastic bags -- so when he saw your video this morning, he shared it with me. Im so glad he did! I've never tried this technique of crocheting yarn around the strips of fabric (or plastic) before, so really look forward to trying something new. I love your teaching style and the kitty and train sounds. Felt like we were sitting together in your kitchen. 🥰
Welcome Cindy, I'm so glad you like it. I also use plastic bags as stuffing in the scrappy pumpkin video 🧡
What a great idea! I've made purses from "plarn", and they are very sturdy and feel as smooth as leather. Plarn is also great for weaving around metal hanging basket and window box frames. It lasts much longer than the coconut liners and look amazing. My window box still looks great after 3 years in the elements. 😊
❤❤❤Ooo the best cotton yarn ever! (From hobby lobby) It's the softest cotton ever! For anyone that doesn't know, all Hobby Lobby's yarn is 30% off every other week! ❤❤❤ All of their yarn is amazing and VERY reasonably priced
Yes, I love their cotton line. Lots of colors, not too bulky and very soft.
A friend spins wool and years ago she made what she calls art yarn. She never knew what to do with it as she normally spins sock yarn, very dainty. I am thinking I could use her art yarn as the fabric in a bag. Won't Amanda be surprised when she sees what I made!
What a great idea. I also want to learn to spin my own yarn someday ❤️
@GinellCooper Amanda uses a spinning wheel. I learned to spin using a drop spindle, which is a lot less money to get started. After watching her and a couple of other ladies spin while doing demo at our local Renfest, when I did my first yarn, I managed a lot smaller yarn than my classmates. Watching someone spin is like watching water flow, so calming!
This is such a cool idea! It gives me all kinds of other ideas on how to embellish it!
Oh, btw, I think there's a quicker and easier way to cut the fabric so that it's all one string. If you look up videos on making plarn (plastic bag yarn), they use some kind of magic to fold it a certain way so that you can cut the entire piece at once. I might be mistaken, but I'm going to check it out after I leave here.
Thanks for the cool idea!
Thank for sharing your cool idea too ❤️
Thank you for such a clear instructional video! Are/were you a teacher? I was gifted a TON of yarn and have been looking for quick, fun, and functional projects. This fits the bill! One day, could you show how to do a rag rug? I was gifted a ton of fabric, too!
Thank you so much! I am not a teacher but I used to be a team leader / manager so I did spend a lot of time leading trainings. Maybe that is a teacher of sorts ❤️
So i learned how to do this with pine needles as a kid. And i moved on to using fabrics simce then. But i wantes to share that it helps when you feed the fabric (or pine needles) through a straw. It helps to curl the fabrice giving a more uniforn base to crochet over.
I've heard of that. I tried the straw technique but I think I needed a bigger straw. Pine needles ....cool. I'm intrigued.
❤❤❤Thank you.
So glad you like it ❤️
Love, love, love the sound of the train!
❤️🚂😁
So I just saw this video and subscribed. Then I realized you are the scrappy pumpkin woman, and I love those! I'm heading from gardening to crochet mode, so I'm going to use fabric strips! Blessings 🧶
Welcome to the channel. I have been bouncing back and forth between gardening and crochet so kindred spirits ❤️
That is something I never would have thought of but I’m definitely going to do one on those bags!!
❤️😊❤️
I’ve seen this done around the seams of blue jeans and then wound in a circle to make a rug. Nice to see clearly how this is started. Hah I heard the train too and thought it was the one near my place lol
I saw that with the denim too and like it. A rug us in my future but I think I am going to try it with something soft like fleece. ❤️
@@GinellCooper yeah it would take a lot of blue jeans to make it.
I flipping LOVE this!❤ TFS!!!
😁❤️
thank you for these no nonsense clear instructions. Such a great idea to use up my boxes of fabric accumulated over the years. I can no longer manage to sit at a sewing machine for very long and hand stitching quilting does not appeal to me. I don't have cutting boards, or quilting measures so I really appreciate cutting strips "about an inch wide" - my kind of precision!! I am so pleased I found your vlog and look forward to looking through your vids to see what other inspiration I find!!
Welcome Anne, I'm so happy to have you here ❤️
That’s lovely but I cried to see you cut that beautiful fabric up! That needed to be in a quilt!
Yeah that was the original plan I think. But after it being in our craft cabinet for years, we found ourselves in the midst of a huge downsizing in preparation for a big move. So I found a way to make use of them. 😁
There is more at the store!😊
We aren’t all quilt makers!
Get a grip! It wasn’t your fabric.
It needed to be what she wanted it to be! 😉
Your choice of color is amazing 🎉Thank you for your teaching!
Thank you ❤️
This video just popped up. I love it. ❤️
Welcome ! 🧡
Beautiful ❤
Thank you ❤️
Great use for fabric. Thanks for the tutorial
❤️😁
Thank you for this process video. It inspired me to try something similar. I found some macrame cord at the Dollar Tree. I used a lime green cord in the place of the fabric, and a turquoise cotton yarn that I crocheted around the cord. It turned out beautiful , sturdy, and strong. It makes a great market place bag, with almost no stretch. It doesn't require a lining either. The bag is also reversible. I love it.
Wow that sounds so amazing! I would love to see pictures of you want to share them to the Facebook group. It's called Ginell's Quarantine Crochet
@@GinellCooper Do I need to sign up to post on your Facebook group ?
@@shonamalone914 yes, it's because last year we had to make the group private. People kept getting notifications that their posts went against guidelines which was silly. We literally only talk about crochet. Even a post I made got hit and it was just a link to my own video. But you don't have to answer questions or anything. We run a pretty easy group
@@GinellCooper Ok. Thanks, I'll check it out..
I have made braided rugs before. This would make a nice rug also. Thanks.
I agree. I have all the supplies to make the rug. Hopefully I will get to that project soon
Good ideas using up scrap from old clothes too. 😊
❤️
I love this idea . Thank you for sharing😊❤
You are so welcome ❤️
You can't see much of the fabric, but I still like it. Great video thanks😂

I'm a Gemini also and I'm amazed you finish projects 😂
Yes, the struggle is real. I just found a sweater that I knitted that is maybe 80% done, but it was so long ago now I can't remember what I was doing.
BTW cute bag
I love it. I have crocheted and felted purses but never tried your style. But I will soon!
❤️❤️❤️
Great tutorial!! I love crocheting and is great to find new ideas!!!😊

I am so glad you like it. I would love to see pics of your creations
That is a good idea I have a lot of material thank you so much for sharing
I'm so glad you like it! ❤️
If you don't mind fuzzy edges, just tear fabric strips. It's super quick, and a great way to get rid of some everyday rage.
Lol I love that 😂
What a great idea ! I have an embarrassingly large fabric stash... I'll never use it all up, but this project will help. I didn't hear what size hook you're using...???
It's an H 5 mm ❤️
First time seeing you. Amazing.❤

So lovely.
Thank you ❤️
Wow! This is really, really pretty! Again you do amazing things with yarn! Love this and it will make a nice portable crochet project I can take with me in the car or waiting room at a doctor’s office. Thank you!
I'm so glad you like it ❤️
Your designs are so fun and pretty. Thank you!
Thank you for appreciating it ❤
Brilliant!!!

Do you have charts, instructions or tutorials available for any of these? They are remarkable. I can do circular motifs so much better than rows back and forth. But when I started learning crochet some of these patterns and techniques were not popular yet, I have noticed they are gaining in popularity again, especially the deeply textured 3/D patterns.
It is my goal to create a written blog for some of my most popular videos as time allows, but this has been a year of big changes for me as I prepare to move my family across the country so I have only done a few so far. But if you would like to subscribe so you see them as they come up, my website is Ginellscrochettherapy.com
Oh my word-- I love this idea!! Your style of teaching speaks to me! As a new subscriber, my to-do list is getting longer. Thank you for these new & exciting crochet crafts!! ♡♡♡

What a great idea! Somewhere in the stash (moved four times since then) i have fabric strips. My question: what brand of hook are you using in the video? I can see the size but not the brand. I have arthritis and I am always looking for ergonomic hooks. Thank you for the info! I'll be on the lookout for more of your videos!
Hi! It was a set that I bought on Amazon for my daughter as a stocking stuffer years ago. Here is a link to one that looks just like it including the case.

Love this! Great video!
Thank you Diane! ♥
When I was young I always had knitting/crochting projects with me. You mentioned, that you made one of these bags on the plane. Now I had thought that with security issues on planes a crocheting needle would be considered a dangerous weapon, how did you manage?
Crochet hooks, tapestry needles and even a pair of scissors is allowed if the blade is small enough...at least in the U.S. ... I always check the TSA checklist to make sure before a flight. If I don't have scissors small enough, I will take nail clippers and use those to break the yarn instead. I think knitting needles are also allowed, I would have to check on that though.
I’m glad you didn’t have terrible music in the background lol
Oh my gosh, thank you. I do use music on my one minute videos or at least I did, that might change with the new ones coming in 2024. Music is problematic anyway because it might be royalty-free now but then 2 years from now it isn't and the video either gets its music taken away or it gets demonetized. Also, I have been watching videos from one person lately who uses the same music in all her videos and it's just on a loop. I have to mute it so I can concentrate on what she's doing. Her videos are great otherwise though. Being a content creator is challenging. There are a few choices I have made in the past I wish I could redo but we just learn as we go around here 😁
Можно сдетать коврик- на тканый будет..ткать я не умею а вязать крючком запросто..

❤️ yes it would probably be even better with t shirt fabric. I was just using up what I had on hand.
I am new to your channel and enjoyed this video very much. I love this technique and have actually used it to make rugs! Just continue in rounds as you do the base of the basket/bag until it's the size you want. They hold up really well. Thanks for the inspiration!!!
Thank you and welcome to the channel! ❤️
Great project.
There is an easier way to cut one long strip - look at some of the T-shirt yarn videos on TH-cam. Much easier and faster.
Got it. I will check it out. ❤️
Hi there! Happy Mothers Day to you. I happened to find your video this Mornin. A video on the bag with fabric . Oh yes, this video 😂, long Day already. Anyway it was a great lil video. I was wondering if you had done the rug yet? Love to see that. I'm thinking I'll just have to jump in on one but thought it be fun to see yours.
Congrats on your first year( plus), Great job!!
I haven't done the rug yet. I get so distracted with so many projects. I am considering a rug soon
You hide the transmission by using g both side by side for a few inches
❤️
Very pretty. When cutting your material on the edges. Would it work better to round the corner instead of leaving the square look? I think it would be a better finished look without the bulk. Just a suggestion. Have you ever tried plastic bags cut into strips instead of the material? I really like the material. I just was curious if you had tried it. I thought it was a fun idea and I made some baskets that way. They make really sturdy baskets.
Yes I like the idea of rounding the corners in future projects. I haven't done the plastic bag strips but I have seen others do it. I usually save my plastic bags for stuffing like in the scrappy pumpkin project.
@@GinellCooper Be careful when one uses plastic bags, especially when it’s used as strips instead of fabric for bags. Most plastic bags are made now to disintegrate for ecological reasons, so you may find it will fall apart and shred over time.
Very fascinating. Going to try this. Do you have written patterns for these?
Not yet. It is my goal to have more written patterns and I started doing it already on my blog at www.ginellscrochettherapy.com/
But if I am being honest, I know that will happen slowly because I tend to lean more toward videos.
Id ❤ to make this bàg but how do I save instructions pleas help me.
Would it be possible to make the handle longer? My mother asked me to make Jerome market bags with long handles so she can put them on her shoulder.
Sure! You would basically just make the chain that goes over the space to create the hole for the handle much longer and if it were me I might make it closer to the top so the straps were skinnier. However there are other ways too. You could just purchase one of those leather straps with the hooks on either side and then crochet in some D rings on both sides of the bag (maybe on the inside close to the top) so she can use it as a handbag or a shoulder bag. Options 😁
Love this!❤what's the best weight yarn or does it matter?! Thanks!
I don't think it really matters. Different weights will give different looks but they all do the same thing. I believe I used worsted weight
Добрый день! Отличная идея и прекрасное исполнение!!
Скажите, пожалуйста, ниточки не сыпятся со срезанных сторон ткани?
Thank you. I haven't had any problems with that. Although maybe they would if it was an item I had to wash often.
@@GinellCooperСпасибо.
This is awesome! It would work great with T-shirt yarn too! I have totes full of T-shirt yarn that I’ve made..looking for projects. ONE QUESTION: just to clarify..on the increases. It’s increase in the first sc increase and sc in all of the sc around the ends. So it’s only 3 stitches total increase on each end, right? Thank you!
Yes, I believe that's right. I would have to watch again to be sure. You might also want one in the center on the end for a total of 3
@@GinellCooper thank you! I think this would make a good sturdy rug as well. 😁
Could you give me an approximate length of fabric used for each bag? This is a cool idea!
Honestly they were all different. I used fat quarters...quilting squares...that I got on clearance and also fabric remnants so they were all just bits and pieces. I show in the video how to cut the strips to make them one long piece and also how to put shorter pieces together.
Love this! How did you turn your toothbrush into a crochet hook?
That's so funny, it definitely looks like a tooth brush 😁
What size hook is this? An H? Ive got to try this and Ill be looking for your rag rug video too. Subscribed!! What a great way to combine my two favorite crafts!!
I think it was an H hook. I'm sorry I was using my daughter's crochet hooks while I was away from mine and may have forgotten to mention it, but usually when I am doing something that doesn't call for a specific size I either use the recommended size for the yarn or my go-to is H
@@GinellCooper thanks. I use a different brand and couldnt tell from the color of your hook. :)
Love this! Really clever. Can't wait to try it. I have some stained clothes and clothes with holes in them I might cut up for this instead of throwing them out. Maybe I missed it but what size crochet hook did you use?❤
Thank you! I used a 5mm hook.
@@GinellCooper ❤
☀️👍👍😊
❤️☺️🙏☀️
What is the "rope" that u use? You said it was used when you make piping. I cant find the link or name for it.
I'm not sure what you are asking so if this answer doesn't help, let me know the time stamp where I mention it and I'll go look and see what I was talking about. I might have been referring to the dollar tree rope basket video that I made just before this one. Here is a link to it.
th-cam.com/video/jRxJZuxWoa8/w-d-xo.html
You mentioned the "rope" is the filler that is used inside piping when someone is making pillows or cushions. It looks like cotton but its sold in long "ropes". You had a link to it on amazon and I thought I saved it on amazon but its not there now. You used it inside fabric strips and then crocheted around it to make these bags.
@@tinapeterson4864 sorry I don't think that was me. There isn't any rope in the fabric of these bags, just the fabric
@@GinellCooper what are you crocheting around to make these bags?
@@tinapeterson4864 just fabric
I don’t understand what I can get things to share I make this bag omg it turned out cute
I'm so glad you like it.
Yes, I just found you and I subscribe to your channel
@@marybethtanner959 welcome!
Now I am making a big one now lol
Is there a certain size of cotton yarn you used? Can you use other types of yarn or is cotton the best choice?
It can be any size you want. I chose to use cotton because it's not as stretchy as acrylic and since the fabric I was using was also cotton I thought it was a good match. But honestly, you can do whatever makes you smile 😁
@@GinellCooper thank you! Really enjoyed your video tutorial 😊
Watching your crochet mini stocking now 👍
That is a great idea! Where did you get the neat crochet hook??
That hook has gotten a lot of attention and many people have asked me about it, but honestly it was just a single hook I picked up at probably Joann's in my favorite side (5 mm) when I didn't bring my whole set to my daughter's house and needed one that would work for anything. I've looked for a name brand on it but couldn't find one. I even tried Google Lens to see if I could find a link to it somewhere, but nothing. It was a happy accident
Am I the only one that doesn't know what is meant by top loop? Front or back loop! Which is top loop to you? Front or back? Very confusing!!!
Well I think that is the benefit of having a video to watch so that you can see what I am talking about. Not everyone uses the same terms to describe things, often times not even the same language. Did you know that the British term for what Americans call single crochet is double crochet? I once did a whole project that was written in UK terms but thought it was the same as US and couldn't figure out why it turned out so huge. But one thing I can tell you is that when you come at me with a whole lot of condescension and exclamation points, I don't feel compelled to help you with your question. ❤️
Oh my! Of course I knew about UK and other countries different terms. I was actually trying to help you. If it was clearer you'd get people sharing etc. More views..but hey take offense.. I don't mind
Top!!👏🧶
❤️😁
@@GinellCooper lindas bolsas.👍
Could you use plastic bag strips instead of fabric!!? I’m in a plastic bag recycle kick!
Yes absolutely. Just keep in mind that a lot of plastic bags are being made biodegradable now though. I live in Oregon (at the moment) and if you can even find a plastic bag at all, they are biodegradable. Which means they break down over time. Someone told me this when I used bags to stuff my scrappy pumpkin and suddenly I noticed it more. This might not be an issue in other states
What size crochet hook did you use?
It's a 5mm
Soooo…. What would you possibly use these bags for? I can’t really think of a use…
Well I have been using the big one to hold my workout stuff in a cute way so it's not in a pile on the floor 😁 but I would love to know what others use them for. They also make great project holders
Can this be done as a basket?
Actually yes. You just need to use a stronger base than just material...or a lot more material. I made a video using this same technique but with rope for a small basket. Here's the link.
th-cam.com/video/jRxJZuxWoa8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zz8aWFosLS5Toi4U
Whtkind of hook are you using? It looks awfully long. Thanks! Enjoyed this video!
Lol so many people have asked me that question. I didn't think it was longer than others but I don't usually use ergonomic hooks so I thought I was fumbling with it for that reason. I thought it was from my daughter's set since I was at her house when I recorded this video but when I researched it I realized it's just a random hook I picked up somewhere.
