    ---- About the Pattern ----
    The Mosu Bag is a crocheted Japanese knot bag that is handy, practical, and can be used year-round! It is made completely in one piece and comes with a full video tutorial. The size can easily be adjusted and customized. The name of this bag, Mosu, is inspired by the moss stitch used in this design, as it is the Japanese word for “moss”. The moss stitch, also known as the linen stitch, is very easy to crochet and produces a beautiful texture as the final result.
    This project works up beautifully with solid colors, variegated yarn, or self-striping yarn. It is recommended to use a yarn that does not stretch, such as 100% cotton yarn. If desired, you may add a cloth lining in the bag or to the underside of the straps to add durability.
    The Mosu Bag is perfect for kids, adults, teachers, friends, parents, and more! This accessory works well as a wristlet, market bag, clutch, purse, tote, and handbag. Sell them at craft fairs or make them as gifts for birthdays or holidays. The PDF pattern includes photo references and full written instructions.
    Size:
    Length (not including handles): 7.75” (20 cm)
    Width: 8.75” (22 cm)
    Level:
    ★★☆☆☆ Beginner/Easy.
    Requires familiarity with stitches used (below) and attaching yarn.
    Stitches/Terms (US Terms):

    sc = single crochet

    Materials:

    I am a beginner, but wanted to.make something with this beautiful yarn I have. Yours is best video for me. You are so calming. Not to mention your pattern has the easiest stitch marker placement.

    Honestly, I don't understand how or why people are rushing to mention that they found the tutorial super easy...the written instructions are kind of nonsense? It isn't a bad pattern and she seems like a great crocheter, but stuff like "in the last 4 stitches sc 3 and inc"? after SCing the whole time...that's just inc in the last stitch of the row. It definitely threw me off and led to a few mishaps, BUT I still managed to make the bag as a gift to my grandmother, so I am thankful nontheless :-)

    • @SweetSofties
      @SweetSofties  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      That part is to explain to the crocheter how the increasing works, since we're increasing in an oval shape. This allows the person to see the repetition that was used in the start of the round to make teh first half of the oval, and then the end of the round. Sorry you didn't like the instructions. I wanted to word it in a way that is didactic and allows the crocheter to learn how the shape is formed, so they can identify the pattern easier and add more rounds by following the repetition if needed. This helps them adjust to their needs.

    • @SweetSofties
      @SweetSofties  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi, thanks for asking! If you're using thick yarn, you can just work with a single strand. I had to combine my yarn strands because they were quite thin/light-weight, meaning I would have to make a lot more stitches to get a decently-sized bag. With thick/bulky weight yarn, you can go ahead and just use a single strand!

      Hi! I'm sorry to hear that...I would assume that is because you have the wrong number of stitches and are perhaps one short or one too many. However, if your stitches prior to that round are adding up correctly...I don't know waht the cause might be. :( I'm sorry if this is not helpful!

      As you crochet the height of the bag, you'll be crocheting in straight rounds (keeping the same stitch count) and repeating the rounds. The sides hsould look like they're going straight up like a square, and not curved in like a triangle. The bag only looks triangular-shaped because I put the straps together in the end. If you check out my blog post (see description box for link) you'll see a photo of how the bag looks laid out flat. Hope that helps!

    Hi! Love the pattern, but I’m also trying to clarify the instructions. When it comes to increasing in R3, it says "in the last 2 sts: sc, inc". In R4, it says "in the last 3 sts, sc 2, inc". In R5, it says "in the last 4 sts, sc 3, inc". Does this just mean to simply increase in the last st of the row? I'm trying to figure out why you're saying to sc as normal across the row, then in the last 2, 3 or 4 sts, you should actually just continue as normal and just increase in the final st. I feel like I'm missing something. Am I misunderstanding? Thank you!

    • @SweetSofties
      @SweetSofties  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi, I wrote it that way because it follows the pattern of increases in the instructions in the round :) For example:
      "R3: (Sc, inc) x 2, sc 28, (sc, inc) x 3, sc 28. In the last 2 sts: sc, inc."
      "R4: (Sc 2, inc) x 2, sc 28, (sc 2, inc) x 3, sc 28. In the last 3 sts: sc 2, inc."
      R3's increases look like: (sc, inc).
      In R4, the increases look like: (sc 2, inc).
      I hope that makes sense. It's to show the crocheter how the increases are formed.

      if your worried about it stretching out i would add a lining if you can but i just used a 4.5 mm hook and it made the stitches tight for me so i’m not too worried about it. you can definitely use acrylic for bags just don’t put crazy heavy things in them, phone and wallet (without a lot of change) should be fine

      @SweetSofties  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Maria, like what A M said, you can use acrylic for bags! The concern is that if you don't add a bag lining, the acrylic yarn is usually pretty stretchy so the bag may stretch out of shape with heavier objects inside. If you add a cloth lining, you should be able to put heavier things into the bag! I recommend cloth lining even for bags made with 100% cotton yarn because it's good to have a protective lining inside anyway...to keep small things from slipping through stitches. It'll help your bag live longer!

      Hi, sorry to hear that! Let me try to figure this out. There's already a "sc 28, 29, 30, 31" in the increase rounds at the end. It's done twice during each round because it makes up the two long lengths of the cylinder. If you see the instructions below, they're already embedded. Could it be that you overlooked that part of the instruction?
      R1: Insert 2 sc in the 2nd ch from the hook. Sc 28. Insert 3 sc in next st, bringing you to the other side of the chain. Sc 29.
      Tip: place a stitch marker at the start of each round to keep track of your rounds.
      R2: Inc 2, sc 28, inc 3, sc 28. In the last st: inc.
      R3: (Sc, inc) x 2, sc 28, (sc, inc) x 3, sc 28. In the last 2 sts: sc, inc.

      If so, it means that you will single crochet in each of the next 3 sts, and then in the very last stitch, you will increase by inserting 2 sc in the same st.
