Hi Claire this is the second time making this bag I love it this time I used Bernat Premium yarn colour purple violet morado hook size I/9- 5.50 mm I love making your patterns yours is beautiful and I love your colours
Love this pattern. I've been looking for tote bags large enough to hold crochet afghan products and I thought to myself,why not just make one. So thanks for this tutorial.
I love the colors you picked for your bag it turn out beautifully. Love this bag pattern, I'm looking forward to starting this project, now to choose the colors that I want. Thank you for the tutorial, love all of your videos, your a wonderful teacher, keep up the great work.😀 God bless
Love the bag and the video. I too was thinking of making it in cotton for the ease of washing, but acrylic will wash up just as well. Oh I know I will make one each. Thank you.
Love the bag and very easy to make. I have several gifts to make for Christmas and will fill it with a magazine and will crochet a lip balm and attach it to the inside of the bag. I am also going to crochet a simple heart and tie it to the outside of the bag with a tag and my name on it. Thank you for the video.
I'm about halfway done and I love the way it's coming out. it's bigger than I thought it would be. the bag really starts to grow once the increases are added. I am using Red Heart with Love also. Mint, Delightful, White, Boysenberry, and maybe I'll add some more colors too lol. Idk yet. Thank you for ALL of your help!
Found this oldie but goodie video. Used one odd ball of Caron cakes. My bag is a gift and I will try to remember to tag you Clair so you can see it. This is a great pattern easy to adjust and quick and fun to make.
I finally took the time to make this bag; I just need to finish the handles. Thinking this will be for me! I was going to do rainbow colors with scrap yarn; but ended up doing a turquoise color (Love Blues!!) and then Orange...and liked how they looked so added a cream color. So prettty! Thanks for all you do to help us Clare! Much appreciated!!
Grannies at the beach -- how cool is that! Love the bright colors. Think I'll make a market/beach bag in this pattern, using cotton. Thanks for another great video! Always so clear and easy to follow. :-)
Thank you for the lovely tutorial.. your videos are always very easy to follow ... I'm making this bag in just two colors... brown n white. It looks good.
oh your bag sounds lovely. i would love to see it when it's finished. you can share it on the facebook page. thank you for choosing my videos. facebook.com/bobwilson123/
Hello Claire, Oh I needed this tutorial! I have 24/7 cotton yarn left over from several ponchos I made. This pattern will work well! Thank you for the inspiration! Sincerely, Lisa
hello zinkmoore, at the end of the video i show how you attach the handles. your rounds shoud end with a slip stitch into your first stich. where are you exactly having trouble
Great video! It was very confusing when you started the yellow row (to continue bag). Maybe add a row to this for clarification? Thanks very much for this!
Thank you for making this tutorial. Are you sure it is not 41 chains total. (Multiples of 4+1)? The only way it works for me is if I do that. If I have 40 chains then I only have 1 stitch left at the end.
Stevia you’re correct. Just started this bag today and even charted the pattern twice to be sure but you do need 41 in order to get a ch1/skip one space before doing that last hdc .
Hi, I'm new to crochet and this is my first bag, Thankyou Sooo much for an easy to follow pattern... Your a star ☄️ would it be possible on some of the rounds to change stitch? Dc/tc? Many thanks Charlene xxxx
hi Clare I made one of these bags and it turned out lovely I'm now on my second bag trying to do the body part in front posts but it still looks flat pls help
Hello Mel, if you are changing the pattern then it may behave differently when you crochet, hope that made sense. If you have increased the base of the bag it always takes a few rows maybe up to 4 or 5 rounds to start to for the bag sides. hope this helps Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback and happy crochet to you Mel
hi Clare thanks for getting back to me no I didn't do anymore increase on the base when you stopped increasing I stopped maybe it's because of the front posts they could be too heavy. I'm on row 12 and to me it still doesn't look right. I might have to rip it all back to the base grrrrrrrrr lol
Is this bag going to hold grossers if it's used as a market bag? Should you double the strands as you did for the little bag on your other video? Will it stretch or be stronger with groceries? Thank you! I love your videos! You explain beautifully! Ricki
hello, you can use whichever stitches you like as long as they don't stretch much. You can use just one handle but you have the potential of the brim of the bag stretching out or not laying properly with just one handle as well as weight distribution is better with two handles versus one.
Can anyone help pls? I'm making beach bag but after increase rows, doesn't go straight up as video shows. Do you know where I'm going wrong? Can't show pic as don't know how to add to this comment. Hope soneone can help. 🙄thx
hi it is still possible you are still doing increase rounds. the more rounds you make it should start forming the sides. you can post a photo on the facebook page or send an email to the help desk if you need. facebook.com/pg/bobwilson123/community/?ref=page_internal, bobwilson123@hotmail.com.au
WHAT DID I DO? I just finished this tote and I LOVE IT! I used RED HEART super saver yarn. The color is called BLACKLIGHT, it's beautiful! Just one problem , and I don't know why! About 8 rounds into the tote there is a line that goes diagonally up the bag with each round. It goes all the way to the top. Any suggestion as to what I did wrong? I LOVE this pattern, but I need to know what I did. Any help would be appreciated! THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP! GRANDMA 11
bonjour dominique je parle que le francais je ne sais pas combien de maille chainette pour le sac de claire merci je n ai pas les sous titres bonne journee
I'm enjoying watching your videos; you are a good teacher, and I've shared your videos with some friends. I teach crochet, too and I always recommend Susan Bates hooks to my students. Here's why. In this video, I notice you having trouble getting your hook out of your last loop on your stitch almost every single time. I would like to suggest that this is not YOU, it is the style of hook you're using. Susan Bates hooks are wider at the head and also the hook is in line with the shank. This allows for smooth exit from you stitches. You will still encounter the problem, but you will notice a significant improvement in the ease with which you are able to get out of your stitches. Please Note that I am in no way compensated by Susan Bates for this recommendation. I just think maybe people are not aware of this problem, or think it is their fault, or don't know there is a difference in the style of hooks that actually alleviates this situation. Or maybe you've tried Susan Bates hooks and don't like them. At any rate, I thought you might be interested to know. Hope that helps. And as you say, Happy Crochet!
Hello Kris, thank you for the heads up :) Its also the weird sitting position I have when filming :) If I am relaxing on the couch I have no problems Great information you have provided about the crochet hooks, we all have our favorites and its great they make so many different styles - Just like goldilocks and the three bears our hooks have to be *jusssst right* Happy crochet to you too :)

Awesome idea !
Linda can i us cotton yarn for this bag? its lovely bag thank you

You and me both !! Sewing is not my area of expertease LOL
Love this bag! I am stuck tho.... I am ready to end the round and begin the straps but how do I finish off the round? Thank you
hello zinkmoore, at the end of the video i show how you attach the handles. your rounds shoud end with a slip stitch into your first stich. where are you exactly having trouble
Great video! It was very confusing when you started the yellow row (to continue bag). Maybe add a row to this for clarification? Thanks very much for this!
Thank you and thank you for your feedback
Do you put a liner in it ?
Your great do you have or know of any blanket with palm tree beach scene tutorials?

Hmm maybe it is ! What ever works for you, go for it :)
Stevia you’re correct. Just started this bag today and even charted the pattern twice to be sure but you do need 41 in order to get a ch1/skip one space before doing that last hdc .
