- Hello everyone and welcome to my channel! Im so happy to have you here! What do you think?!? Did we nail the bag in this video, is it a passable dupe for like a 1/100th of the price?? This video was a fun one to film and I really hope you enjoyed it! Cant wait to hear what you think, let me know what other bags youd like to see me try to recreate!

I have been crocheting for over 50 years. I also appreciate people being paid an equitable wage for their crocheting skills. That being said, unless that actual designer Miu Miu $1400.00 bag was made with 100% cashmere yarn and 24 kt. golden threads, lovingly hand spun by fairies in a magical woodland cottage at the exact apex of the vernal equinox (and crocheted whilst doing handstands), there is no way in hades that the bag should command that ridiculous price. Yes, crochet can not be machine manufactured. Yes, that makes it a unique fiber art form. But crocheting is not difficult. It's not dangerous. It is not rare. $1400.00 is an insane price and anyone who would fork over that kind of money for a crocheted bag should be held under a conservatorship. My advice to anyone willing (and ABLE) to pay $1400.00 for that bag is to look into philanthropic avenues for spending that loose cash you have burning holes in your pockets. But the dupe was spot on.
I agree with you👍
Funny, too 😊 😁
I love your reply. It captures everything I - as a very accomplished crocheter - hold dear.
echoing the other replies!!! 😂😂
Hilarious.
All of this
The hair tinsel is a good idea, but if you want glitter or sparkle in your work you can also pick up a spool of glittery sparkly embroidery thread for like $3 at Joann's or any sewing/craft store. I do that for Christmas ornaments and stuff like that. You just crochet it in with whatever yarn you're using.
That’s a great idea!
I just about died when you showed the cherry charm AND happened to have that fabric! Adorable! Thanks for all of the effort you put into this.
I like your rendition of the bag better than the original. It's very cute.
Thank you so much!
Also, iridescent embroidery floss or any of the metallic flosses would work Great
I still think the hair tinsel is a genius idea even if it was a pain at first, well worth it, the bag looks great you did an amazing job. I might even try hair tinsel in some of my small Christmas projects thanks to your great idea!
Ohh thats a great idea for christmas projects!! How fun! Im so glad you liked it and liked the bag!!
I have made and designed several bags with crochet. I took them out and about to check and see if anybody mentioned they liked it or whatever. Usually in the grocery store the cashier or another customer will say oh I like that bag and I say oh I made it thank you. Would you mind telling me how much you might pay for this bag. They look me straight in the eye and they say oh I don't know 10, 15 or maybe $20? Original design, hand stitched lining, custom pockets for phones or whatever and this is what they're willing to pay. The same with twin or full size blankets. People are willing to pay $300 or $600 for a handmade quilt even sewn by machine but they offer me $25 intricately designed and stitched crocheted blanket. I don't get it.
well, there are group of people who understand value of hand made things, but mass of people don't understand that. Recently i made 2 dolls to my cousin and she liked it so much and she was like: why you don't sell your stuff, but i know how long it takes to make, to design original peace, how much materials costs I also working, so it's really hard to find a buyer who would buy it for a price is worth of all work.
That's because they're used to seeing cheaply produced imported goods and just don't get it.
As a quilter, I know that not many people are willing to spend $$$ for a quilt. Materials alone can cost hundreds of dollars.
I'd rather buy straight from you, an artist, that put so much thought and creativity into it. Never a dupe. You were inspired and it's so much more valuable
I love the end result and your own flare on it. If it were me I’d remove the brand name off of it, maybe replace it with a play on the inspiration piece, like “mew mew” or something. I’m definitely inspired to make a scrap purse like that now! ❤
I totally agree. I was thinking BLO KNO but MEW MEW is also a great idea.
Was just thinking the same thing!! 😅
You could do 3 "m" to make "mew" !
Thanks for sharing your process. I had never heard of Miu Miu but I really liked the colours and scrappy look so I made one similar and added Me Me for my lettering which makes me laugh! I found a new bag in a charity shop for £2 and disassembled it and was able to use the liner with zip and handle so that was great!
Wow I love your thrift flip! Wish you could add a pic to your comment hehe
That is a clever idea. Repurposing items is always a good thing when possible.
I’m amazed at your ability to put this together! Bravo!!
Thank you so much!!!
So fun, and thank you! I've made two afghans in this manner, so scrap double strand DC is not new to me. I saw this and thought I could quickly whip up 2 bags for birthday gifts next week. I looked online at these bags and saw they were not lined and thought how dumb it was to not have lining. Then I finished watching your video....great minds think alike! I'm off to order the supplies needed, but in the meantime, I'll knock out the crochet panels and stitch the linings and zippers together. BTW, this video is the first I've seen of you as it just popped up in my feed. Talk about timing!!!! Thank you again 😊
Oh how fun!! And Im so glad you came across my channel! Im so happy to have you here!! Thank you so much!!
I’ve had a sparked interest in making a crochet bag for some time now and stumble upon your video.. LOVE LOVE your creation.. all the subtle deviations as you called them..were perfect for this designer inspired bag.. In fact.. in my humble opinion.. as i admittedly know nothing of this named designer.. but if both of these bags were side by side on the store shelf.. your bag would have 100% been the one I took to the cash register.. 😁 seeing some of your user friendly ideas of hand stitching and some other easily obtainable materials had me brainstorming a little more myself about the bag I would like to make.. Thank you sharing your art and craft with us all.. reading some of the others comments.. it wasn’t only me that you awakened so many inspiring ideas in.. 😉Much yarnie love to ya 🧶💕✨💖🥰
Usually with designer brands I hate the pricing, but with a crochet piece I can’t say I’m mad at it. Just hope the maker is actually getting paid fairly.
Exactly my thoughts as well! Lets hope!
Unfortunally I don´t think that the maker get´s fairly paid just because all miu miu bags are super expensive. The canvas bags are all over 1000 bucks and the leather ones ovewr 2000 bucks.
They probably are not. Workers in fashion are just not greatly paid with insane work loads. And most of the profit ends up with higher corporate.
I’m not sure a crochet piece of that size is worth the asking price….
Somehow, I doubt it. In general, designer brand prices do not translate to higher pay for production workers.
This is fabulous looking. Definitely worth more $17! By the way, the Large summer beach tote bag which is also a faux crochet is selling for almost $4,000. I'm about ready to go dive headfirst into my scrap Collection and give that a shot.
I have my eyes on a Prada beach bag remake that is something like 4k so maybe thatll be coming up soon! But yay!!! Get rid of that scrap yarn my friend!!!
When you talked about buying sparkly yarn i was like noo ive seen ppl buy tinsil and just use that... then u said it LOL. Very smart! I definitely wouldn't of thought of it if I hadnt seen someone do that already. The bag looks great!
Thats awesome!! Im glad I took that route!! ANd im glad you like the bag!!
Dana, other than getting inspiration from your vids, the thing I love most about your vids is that you show us how to create our visions without spending a ton of money. In today's economy, we need to save money wherever we can. I think I would wither away if I couldn't crochet because of money. TY so much for helping us save money while we do what we love. YOU ROCK!!!!
Good dupe. Great attention to detail. I appreciate the scrap yarn aspect.
I usually hate crochet bags but I love this so much. You killed it
Thank you so much! Im so glad you liked it!🥰
This turned out so great! Using the hair tinsel was a great idea, I never would have thought of that. This is the perfect project for scrap yarn for sure! -Spencer
Thank you so much! Im so glad you liked it!🥰
I have lots of yarn left overs. I never thought of making a purse out of them thanks.
Your skills are out of this world. The bag is a perfect replica. You are very talented.
Love DUPBAGY the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other TH-camr can show off bags in as much detail as you.
SO CUTE!!!!!!! I love that it looks sturdy and not floppy. Just love watching your videos.
Great job on this cutie 👜. Thanks for sharing 💕
Thank you so much! Im so glad you liked it, youre so kind!🥰
SOOOOOOOOOOOOO in love with this bag
II love that you did say your not promoting copying a designer but I do love that you took it as a challenge. Your crochet creativity was spot on,great job!❤
Awh Thank you so much! Youre so kind! Im so glad you enjoyed it!! 🥰
I think it's gorgeous! Totally motivated me to try my hand at my own bag!
Yay!! Thats the whole goal for these types of videos!
First time I peaked at your channel I think you’re an awesome young girl with so much energy and determination. I really think everyone in the whole wide world that happens to be on TH-cam gives you a thumbs up you deserve it. You have worked so hard to do your version of this bag, I feel so bad that you’re having a hard time with the tinsel. I’m sure whoever ends up with this bag if it’s not, you will be so very happy to have one and if they’re not and they seem a little standoffish with the compliments. I suggest they take a few minutes and look at your channel. I am quite sure you will not be making a second bag and I’d say your bag looks better than the original only because of the love and time you’ve put into it, will I be going through this with hair tinsel and whatever no Because my neighbors would run me out of the area because of all the curse words I’d be using, but you go girl you’re doing a wonderful job and I’m enjoying every moment of it and I think your bag is nicer by the way 😊🧡💛🍻🇨🇦
So cute! I love the way you tweaked it. Thanks for posting
Bags in D U P B A G Y are quite exquisite, and the workmanship is also meticulous. There is almost no difference from the original ones, and they are great value!
Love the bag! I can imagine it crocheted in an ombré or other variegated yarn. Thanks for sharing the project!!
Your bag turned out great! I enjoy watching your channel because it is never boring, always something different and fun.Thanks for sharing your talent 🧶🧵🪡👜
Thank you so much my friend!! 🥰❤ Im so glad youre here and enjoying my content!
Super fun watching you recreate this bag. Beautifully done! And I love your sewing machine! I even “rewound” the video to get a better look. Brilliant!🦋
lol Thank you sooo much!! I love my fun sewing machine as well, i have a video where i show you how I bedazzled it if your ever interested! Thank you for the sweet comment!
The result is so cuuute; I’m in love! Here in Brazil, we have a yarn called Amigurumi - Brilho that already has the sparkle 😍
Glad to b here ,the vibe is great.❤ awesome idea❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Absolutely awesome and actually looks better than the original! 😍
i love the bag! the cherry details are PERFECT as well!
YAY! Im sooo glad you liked the cherry details!! Thank you sooo much! im sooo glad you enjoyed the bag!! 🍒
It' turned out SO CUTE! I love it! 😍 I wish I was talented enough to look at a crocheted item and just wing it and make it myself. It turned out so, so good!
Thank you so much!! Im so glad you loved it!! You are so talented, we all just have different strengths! This is a skill ive been working at for awhile!
Love love love the way this turned out! Brilliant idea for the hair tinsel! If you make another one, maybe try building the sides by crocheting in the round. If you start at the center of one of the short ends of the bottom, you can still get the side seam look on one side of the bag. Or, you can make it look seamless if you prefer. Thank you for the inspiration! I definitely want to give this a go!❤❤❤
Ohh yes working it the round would be genius!!! I would def recommend giving that a shot instead if you try it out!🥰
This is an excellent project for🎄 gifts😍. Thank you for the tutorial.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
you have a lovely home, and that's such a good job on that bag
It's so good, you did an amazing job! What a fun project!!
Thank you so much, it really was!!
Such a smart & creative idea using the hair tinsel! This whole video/tutorial in general,is really awesome of u to share with any1 interested in the bag,but cannot afford 2 buy a popular designer bag like this!
Hi. Loved this recreation. I may have a go at this myself. I loved this bag but I will probably leave off the lettering and make the handle longer. But thank you for this
I like your remake more than the original! Good job!
Wow, thank you so much! That is so amazing for me to hear!
This was such a fun watch! The bag turned out so freakin cute!
Wow. You did an amazing job!!! Love it! I would love to try and recreate this bag. It is gorgeous.
You should give it a try! It was sooo fun! Thank you so much , Im so glad you liked it!!
The bag is so amazing!! I don't like the look of the inspiration but you killed it with the dupe. Fun to watch!
Thank you so much!!!
This was a wonderful helpful video I am starting mine this week.
I really enjoyed your video. Excuse me if others ask but I wish you would do a video on how to add the zipper. AND talk about paying crocheters for their time, thank you for your time, talent and efforts making this video.
Omg I didn’t even know I needed one of these! *added to project list*
It looks perfect! Amazing job!
OMG! I love it! Amazing talent you have!
Thank you so much! Im so glad you liked it!
Thank you! Love your sewing machine!!🥰
WOW I love the overall idea! Also bedazzling your sewing machine?! Definitely would do that if I had the patience :)
Thank you so much! Im so glad you liked it!🥰 my sewing machine is my favorite crafting tool because of the jewels! LOL
Great job! So inspirational! Thank you.
I absolutely love watching your videos! I just starting doing markets this year (I never had the confidence before) and listening to all your wonderful ideas and just chilling out watching you work makes me happy to be in this community :)
Youre awesome! Im sooo proud of you for stepping out of your comfort zone and doing markets. I know its ALOT and takes alot of courage! Go you my friend , Im rooting for you! IM so glad your part of the community!
Omg. Such great idea w/ hair tinsel. I happen to have a whole pckg of every color!
You are a genius with the tinsel!! I love this! Definitely going to recreate soon 🥰💖
Ah thank you so much! Im so glad you liked it!! Definitely give it a try!!!💗
Miu miu is Prada, the shoes are gorgeous
Love it & love your sewing machine!
Thank you so much! Im so glad you like both🥰
Gold Girlies UNITE🫡
I loved this sooo much 😍 keep slayin girl 💁🏽♀️
YESSSS gold is eliteeee! Thank you soo muchh im so glad you enjoyed the video!!🥰🍒
Hello, I wanted to quickly send you a comment to tell you that I've been new crochet maybe coming onto a year. I learned pretty much so far from books and you tube. I just found your chanel and I have to say Your My Favorite! Super fun and I am looking forward to more content. Thanks for being Awesome and sharing your knowledge plus all your hard work.
Oh gosh youre so kind!!! Thank you so much!🥰 Im so gl;ad you picked up crochet and teaching yourself! Youre awesome, thank you for being a part of my channel! Im so happy to have you here!
Great job on the bag. It looks awesome and I'm tempted to make some myself. If I do and decide to sell some I'll be sure to crochet MEW MEW on them to keep out of trouble. I also won't be asking over 1k for it.
This is so cute and turned out fantastic! Awhile ago I saw a $4,000 crochet dress from another designer and nodded in approval...hopefully the person got paid fairly there as well!
Yeah...they are. But again the bag turned out wicked 😊
Thank you so much! Im so glad you liked it!🥰
I’m definitely inspired! Not too sure I’d go with all the colors, but inspiration still hit! May end up with a “neighbor down the street” type of resemblance when I’m done! 😂
Round the edges of your leather for d- rings will look more finished and it will catch in things less.
Yassss! I have been wanting to recreate this bag too- you did such an amazing job. Love it! ❤️
Ahhh Im so glad you liked it!! I would recommend you give it a try it was so much fun! ❤
You have so much talent!!❤ it looks incredible!
Thank you so much!!!
I’m excited to make a bag for myself. Probably smaller. Thank you so much!!
Yes that would be gorg! Enjoy!
Wow! You really a fiber artist! I'm not a bag lover but your work is amazing 🎉
Love this! Please continue making more videos like this. You are very talented!
Thank you so much , this was reallly sweet if you!
Nice work 🎉it looks so much like the original
for everybody that wants to do this without the glittertencle knotting , there is spezial glitteryarns as thin as this Tencle for exactly that purpose.
Thank you so much!
Well done on your 10k Dana, it's so deserved. I've been looking forward to today's video and it didn't disappoint x
Youre SOO kind. This means alot to me, Im so glad I didnt let you down! 🥰
love this!!! i recreated the unif joy bag last yr for personal use and now im tempted to make this bag after seeing ur vid!!!
Oh how fun! And you should give it a shot! It was A LOT of fun to recreate!
Your bag is so adorable. Love it! I wish I had more knowledge of crochet ing.
Online Walmart has their Mainstay sparkle yarns for only $3 per skein, and they're good quality; I've used them quite a bit, never a problem!
oh I had no idea! thank you so much!
First time to see one of your videos, looking forward to watching more. This inspired me to make one for my granddaughter. Thank you for sharing.
Cool how you created the bag's depth. Great job!
Thank you!
I love how the bag turned out! The cherries were such a cute idea! An item i would love to see you recreate is the granny square shoes you showed in a studio vlog. I think it’ll be an amazing video! ☺️
Thank you so much! Im so glad you liked it!🥰 and yes! I still hope to do those, Im still looking for the prefect yarn / shoes to use!!
You are very creative!
I love the style of the bag, I will be trying this. Thank you
That just came out darling and looks so so good. I have so many things I want to make and this is now another. lol Thank you for sharing your make, ideas and suggestions.
Thank you so much my friend!! 🥰❤ I have so many ideas too, the list is always growing for us crocheters! lol
So cute!!!! You did that 💯
AHHH Thank you!!!🍒
It came out perfect! Loved the video. I was wondering do you have any videos on how to make and add the zippered lining in a crochet bag. Nice work 🍒
I think you've done a wonderful job on this purse. I'm going to try it myself ❤ I've never seen your videos before. You're very relatable, and off subject, you look a lot like Marilyn Monroe when you smile. ( Just a compliment, not a weirdo 😂)
Cute, the sister label to Prada, Miuccia Prada. I like it. Ty for sharing.
Thanks for watching! IM so glad you liked it!
I would do the “meow meow” embroidered 😻😻
I love you so much! I recently just found your kislux and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life
This made me smile. ❤
The brand Miu Miu is a side branch of Prada and the "crochet" bags they offer is not actually crocheted, they look mass manufactured also. They found something that looks close to crochet stitching but it's not really. But hey I'm glad it's some inspiration for you to make a real version! ❤
Hmmm... this is a good point. I guess it would be very hard to believe someone hand crochets these bags.. I didnt even consider this. Thank you for the very educated insight. Maybe they can hire me to make like... 6 of the real crochet ones, Ill gladly take a cut of $1400😂
Actually, I just googled the bag, and zoomed in on the picture, and it's most definitely crocheted. You can clearly see the stitches.
@@lianamurray9915and count! I will make a chart for this as soon as i will make it!
They pay people in impoverished countries by the piece. They aren't paid well at all.
I was examining photos from the miu miu website of the pouch and couldn’t figure out what stitch it was but taking another look, that shit is straight up knitted. It’s knot top down and every other stitch is slipped together alternating rows to look like crochet. 😒😒😒 Wtf.
Omg that came out sooooo good!!
So cute!! Amazing job! You crushed it
Thank you so much!🍒
Hi. Beautiful bag😍. You mix different type of lane.(acrilic, cottón etc)
It came out so good! Great job!!
beautiful challenge to duplicate the bag - I'm liking the process and the idea of adding the sparkle - I won't be doing all of the color changes, but I may try making a bag in this style
It’s adorable, great work. I want one!
You did a GREAT deconstruct! I want to make one! I'm ordering strap I think I will go with a white or light color lining. I hate dark linings, hard to see in there. The cherries were a nice touch too!
YES! Give it a try thats soo fun!! I agree, a light liner is a far better choice! I think you will love it!!
WOW! Creative Superwoman, your recreation of that Bag is Awesome! I've Never thought about making a bag until I just watched your Tutorial. I'm Very Inspired by You to try this out this Morning! Thank You, New Subscriber! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much my friend!! 🥰❤ Youre so kind!! and thank you so much for subscribing to my channel!! Im soo happy to have you here!!
I love it!! It’s beautiful ❤❤ it’s a dupe definitely ❤❤
Thank you so much! Im so glad you liked it!🥰
