Hello and welcome to another video! Today, we're crocheting a simple mini shoulder bag / baguette bag. This DIY mini shoulder bag is super cute and super fun to make! This one has been requested many times, so thank you to all those who requested it! Please continue to leave more recommendations in the comments!
Project Level:
This easy crochet shoulder bag tutorial is for those that are slightly more advanced than beginner! This bag is worked in rounds, which an absolute beginner may not be familiar with. Also, the attachment of the strap can be a little difficult, but you can crochet the strap separately, then sew it on. The rest is pretty easy. We use half double crochet for the entire project!
Stitches:
Slip knot (sk)
Chain (ch)
Half double crochet (hdc)
Slip stitch (sl st)
Materials:
Red Heart Super Saver yarn in "Café Latte": amzn.to/40BEvZX
- Weight: Medium (4)
- Fiber: 100% acrylic (cotton works fine, too!)
- Approximate length: 180 yd / 165 m
- Approximate weight: 100 g
5.0 mm Aluminum Crochet Hook
Darning/Tapestry/Yarn Needle
Scissors
Gauge:
15 hdc - 13 rows = 4 in / 10 cm
Dimensions:
9 in x 5.5 in or 22 cm x 14 cm
Tips:
- Tighten your slip stitches to make the seam smaller and less visible
- The chain 1 at the beginning of each round does NOT count as a half double crochet
- If you're having trouble with the bag strap, consider chaining the length of the strap you want and half double crocheting across it. Then, simply sew the strap onto the ends of the bag
- Weave in your loose ends on the inside of the bag (where no one will be able to see!)

Hi! I just wrote up a pattern to go along with the video: vivcrochets.com/shoulder-bag
I hope it makes it even easier to follow along!
Do you use exactly 100g or there has a yarn left?
Sorry for the late response! I usually round to the near number so it could be either higher or lower. If you plan to only buy 100g and you run out, you can remove one round off the top!
@@VivCrochets🎉🎉
what can u use instead of a yarn needle?
Thank you so much I appreciate this because I have been crocheting for a year now but I am still trying to learn how to make other things still😊❤
Guys, who agrees that the crochet community is the most kind, caring, sweet, supportive and creative community! I think so❤
Of course it is!
Yeah much better than knit, it's full of boomers
I'd say about 37 of these views are me going back to the video after I "got it and don't need to look at the video anymore"
Sameee
Ur guinea pig pfp is so cute and this comment is so relatable 😂
Me too😭😭😭 we all on the same page.
Same bahahahaha
FRRRR EXACTLY HAHAHA
I came here as a beginner and her video is the first that popped up. Now I can only watch what she makes because her voice is soothing, her hands are so pretty to look at and her detailed explanations make crocheting easier. I think this is my one and only crochet teaching channel I'll ever use.
YES, her voice is so calm like the other vids are like screaming at me!
I was following a tutorial and the person who was making it was so confusing and not explaining what I need to do
Same for me
Sameee! Also with Crochet with Mahum. VivCrochets and Crochet with Mahum are my go to channels, I’m subbed to them both too ❤😊
You are the best teacher
This is the most lovley turtorial ive ever came across. Thank you and have a nice week
For everyone saying they suck at crochet and they can’t do it, this took me 5 tries as a beginner. Just work really hard on stitches from chains and learning to do clean stitches, you’ll get it.
This is so cute! I could totally see a kids version of this with some crochet flowers sewn on it!
I’ve just finished it for my sister as a gift for her birthday. It’s so freaking beautiful! But it’s not the perfect bag because I’m still beginner but it tured out beautifully! I’m so excited to give her and see her reaction 🫶🏼
Very well detailed tutorial. Definitely trying this. Thank you😊
VivCrochets makes every crochet project I've ever done so simple and easy. Her voice is pleasant and understandable unlike other crochet youtubers. Her work is so simple yet so beautiful. Thank you so much for teaching me how to crochet this VivCrochets
I made this beautiful brown bag as a beginner and now I can hold my phone! I’m working on another one mustard yellow with chunky yarn! Thank you for this tutorial!!!
I am doing this for my mom for Christmas and i think she will love it. Thanks 😊😊
This was my first crochet project and I’m so glad that you made it so beginner friendly! Thank you I love my bag!
How much wool did you use?
@@simphiwezungu2124 I can’t remember sorry!
@@sigridmasterbard7295 that's okay. Thank you
did it take many tries?
@@aleir_s no it was really simple ☺️
I love so much your vlogs! You are the best!
took me a few tries and finding the right comments but I successfully made the bag and its so adorable and prefect for on the go. I ended up making 3 bags with 1 ball of yarn.
Hello! May i ask how many hours it took u to make 1? im so sorry i'm new and i'm having a hard time i just want to know if this is a quick project.
@@ShyPlarisan If you are a beginner i don't think this project would be quick but it's really simple and easy and the results will definitely make you proud. Hope this helps.😊
@@ShyPlarisanmine took me about 5 hours and im a beginner
@@Ellabellacinderellasame
I made it! It’s super cute. Pretty easy to make. It’s the first bag I’ve ever made.
How many balls of yarn did you use??
I am a beginner and wow that was the easiest tutorial I have every watched🎉❤ Life Saver
This is the most easy crochet video i have ever seen❤❤
Thank you for this tutorial it was amazing it turned out so cute❤
I made my first bag thanks to your video! It's beautiful thank you so much
How many grams of yarn did you use?
This is so easy to follow. I can't wait to make it!
Very easy to follow along! I just finished mine, can’t wait to try new projects 💖
I’m glad you thought so!
heyy, may i ask how long it took you to finish? :)

I finishedmaking this yesterday and i really love it thankyou for this!! Its really pretty and unlike others crochet bag tutorial which needs sewing and I dont really understand how to sew for their videos but your video doesn’t need sewing so I could do it except the fact that I had to restart a few times because I kept thinking the slip stitch was the last stitch so I was increasing but I learnt my mistakes:D THIS BAG IS PERFECT but the only thing is that the width of the bag strap seems a bit too small for me so maybe ill make it with two hdc instead but otherwise thank you for this tutorial the bag is really nice!!
Great video as always!! 💕
Thank you so much!
It looks amazing!
I enjoy how you give step by step instructions for the bag. Lovely work. Thank you
OMG 😱😱 THIS IS SOOO COOLL IT WORKED SO WELLL LOOKING FOR MORE TUTORIALS ♥️♥️ GOT A NEW SUB
Yes her voice is very soothing and one other thing I do is first I follow the directions and then while I’m doing whatever I have toI listen to Lori beats❤❤❤
Your video make me better at crochet 👍🏻
I just unraveled hours of work because I ended up accidentally increasing each half-round ;oo time to do it over again
I did the same. How do I avoid this ?
@@deenac1064 instead of increasing every time you get to the side of the bag (every half round) instead make your way around the entire thing, and then increase.
I did this too mine started curving in opposite directions
Hi! Thank you for the amazing video. This video is so easy to understand. Mine is a little bigger and starts with 40 chains but when getting higher the crochet is conical seems like I skipped some chains and need to restart again 😂
omg thank you so much for making this 😍😍😍😍 i haven't been online in yt do i just got to know this
No problem!
its been years since i first watched this video but each time i need a refresher on how to make bags like this i come back to ur video
Hey i have a doubt.... After round 2 should we continue to make 1 chain like we did in last 2 rounds
@@Animewave193 thats what i do, yes!
@@annayleen thankyouu ☺️
@@annayleen one more doubt.... Ugh in each round we would do chain right and should we do 2hdc in the same chain at the other end in each round?...I did 3 of 4 rounds I did thd chain and all but that side curved and the other side is straight
@@Animewave193 mmm i'm not sure if i understood ur question correctly but i think you're only supposed to do 1 hdc in each stitch after the first round so it will look straight:))
Baby girl you a great teacher ❤I can neatnow following you
I just learnt how to crochet the other day and I love your videos so much. The tutorials are so thorough and easy to follow. By the end of the week I'm definitely going to have a bag and a bucket hat!
Thank you so much for your content!
Aw thank you so much!!
turns out crochet is easy! not as difficult as I imagined!!~♡
That’s right! Not as hard as it seems!
I'm learning because crocheting just seems so soothing and beautiful, i got my hooks from my grandmother. She passed away awhile ago so that's another reason im learning, thank you for this easy, understable, and amazing video.♥
I’m learning with my grandma hooks too!! she passed away on february and crocheting is making me feel closer to her🤍
This was fantastic ♥️thank you
I DONT THINK ITS A COINCIDENCE THAT I NEEDED A BAG VIDEO AND YOU JUST POSTED THIS!!! THANK YOUUU
Hahah it’s fate!
Earned a new subscriber!!!
This is very cute! Easy video to follow and you are so underrated!
Thank you so much!
I have a few questions, my bag started to curl a lot at the ends so it started to look like a banana how do I fix that? Also my bag got really short even tho I did the same number of stitches as you can I fix these? Ty
Sorry for the late reply! Do you mean that the ends where the straps are began to curve up? If you're using this bag to hold sort of heavy things, you can line it with fabric. But since it's made of a soft material, it will curve like that unless it's lined with something stiff. And if it's too short, you can just keep adding rounds until you get the length you want!
I love your tutorials you explain everything! ❤️❤️
Thank you so much!
@@VivCrochets no problem just speaking the truth :)
i’ve finished it,i thought it was the same as yours lol,it kind of shrinks smaller and smaller but it turned out very good and pretty,thanks for the tutorial it was really helpful!
i nearly cried it was so hard crocheting only because it was my first time !!!
you got this! it’s been nine months since you commented this (currently) and i know that if you have kept trying since then you would have it down!
I feel frustrated when I’m not getting it I’m a beginner tho but I know I got this 😢
Started doing this today!
I just made this bag in green colour as a birthday gift for my bestie. She loves it🎉😊
I enjoyed your video it was easy follow I made it yesterday it turned out ok
nicei did one while watching you explain it beatifully may i add thank u😊
Obrigada moça, eu tô querendo aprender e vou começar por causa do seu vídeo 💕💕
Oii. que linha tu usou? que marca?
Hey Viv! I’m an 11 yr old self teaching myself to crochet :) and I have to say, ur videos have helped me so much! Ur beanie video was so helpful, but I haven’t had the motivation to do a big project like that, so I looked to see if you had bag tutorials, and you did! This I so cute I’m going to do it with single crochets, btw new sub ❤❤❤
Omg same but I am 10 and let me tell you viv will help u all the way through.
Im 11 and her vids are the reason I've made amazing projects
Ikrr
Same i am still working on it😊
Am 19😢😢😢
i love love love this project, A LOT. The slip stitches do slant as the rows increase, but they slant beautifully. I mean, if this shoulder bag was for sales and i'm the buyer, i would've thought that the slant was just the part of design!
I definitely want to, but I’m still working on some other projects. I’ll try to do one soon, though! Thanks for the suggestion!!
@@VivCrochets it's okay ;) take your time, but I'm glad that you read my comment ✨✨
Thanks so much ❤
That is sooooo cute!! And I agree with somebody already said…… you are very easy to follow and are VERY thorough!!! Thank you! 💜💜💜💜🧶🧶🧶
Thank you so much!
This video was so helpful for me😅
This is an extremely beautiful tutorial to create a shoulder purse. Sorry but i failed at making this master piece
Hey!! Do i have to do two half-double crochets at the end of each round, and then do the slip stitch?
omg aaaaa i used to crochet like that but i never tought of making a shoulder bag
hi, thank you so much for the tutorial, really easy to follow instructions and straight to the point!! can i just ask, when we’re halfway through a round and reach the end of the row, what exactly do we do? are we supposed to slip stitch and chain 1 as well or work half double crochets around it?
You just keep going! You only slip stitch and chain 1 at one point in each round
@@VivCrochets So we double crochet both sides, but slip stitch in only one. Right?
Yes, that’s right
@@VivCrochets Thank you for your reply. However, just to make sure, we do that only in round 1. The rest of the rounds until we finish should have only one side with double crochet and a slip stitch. Correct?
Not exactly! We’re working in a sort of spiral. So once you finish one round (an entire circle) you slip stitch, and start the next round. Next round you work all the way around in a circle again
Very cute ❤easy many thanks
Thank you for the video!! A great tutorial as usual❤️
Thank you so much!!
That’s me made a bag well kind off! The corners at the bottom pop out a lot and it’s really holey but maybe I’ll use a smaller hook next time!
This was the very first crochet project that I worked on, and it turned out pretty good thought the sides were a mess. I made this bag about a year ago, and since then, I have massively levelled up my game, and I now do so many advanced crochet projects basically daily, mostly amigurumi and other useful stuff. Now that I've found the video again, I am thinking of reattempting this but sadly I don't have the original bag to compare it to. Over all I have to say a big thank you for teaching me some of the basics and giving me one last push to finally give crocheting a go! I can't even thank you enough you have changed my life. Literally! ❤
Hi viv! im on my 4th round and the crochet is flat and isn't curving up like yours is even though I'm pretty sure I followed the video right is there a reason for that? (btw i love your videos they're the only one that actually helps me make these things):)
Hello! As long as you didn’t add stitches, it should start curving. Try folding it flat along the foundation chain. It should have straight edges and look like a rectangle
@@VivCrochets After the second round, do to insert your hook under two loops (vs?) or just one for the half double crochet?
Under both!
awesome! if your doing double crochets do you chain 2 instead at the end of each round or just 1? absolutley love your videos keep up the great work!
Yes, chain 2!
Beginner level : 2
Starting on oct 14 2021 8:00pm currently on round 1.
I stopped at 8:39pm.
Started again at 2:04pm.
2:14 done with he first round :D
Round 2!
Started : 3:53
Lol
cute❤
Wow beautiful 🥰
Thank you!
After the second round, do you continue to insert your hook into 2 loops instead of just one?
up to how many rounds do we do 2 hdc in the last stitch? is it just up to the 2nd round?
May I ask if I can turn this to a tote that I can use as my university bag? I am beginner at crocheting, that’s why I am asking😅. Thank you♥️
I love your voice and thank you for your detailed video! ❤️ Also, I saw a cute sweater with clouds on it and I was wondering if you'd be able to make it. This is just a suggestion, so you don't have to do it.
Thank you so much! I’ve seen those and they look so cute! I would love to make one, but it won’t be for a little while aw
if your using a more bulky yarn or just a thicker one i recommend a 5.5 mm a 6 mm 6.5 mm or a 7 mm depending on the size of your yarn you could even use bigger ones
Thank you for this!! Does this have a written pattern?
Do we do a slip Stich on both ends ? Or only the one we started in pls somone answer
Hey Viv,
I absolutely love this tutorial. I had a question. Can I make this using single crochet? Thank you
Yes, definitely! You’ll have to do more rounds to make the same size as me, but that’s it
@@VivCrochets ahh okayy thank you very much
I tried with single crochet, I think I’m failing 😂. Could you please make a short explain how to the edges?
Super cute bag! One question, how do i know which stitch is the first one of the round?? I can’t tell
You can look for the post of the first half double crochet, then above it to the right should be your stitch! If you have trouble finding it, you can place a stitch marker every time you do your first stitch of the round
Sounds like I can probably do this but can I use other yarn than acryllic? Thank you for this video.
Definitely! If you don’t plan to put anything really heavy inside, almost anything goes. If you want something sturdy, go for cotton!
I'm using a thin thread and it actually works
slip knot, ch 35
hdc in first st x2
hdc rest of row x1
in the last ch, 2 hdc
flip work, 2hdc in same loop (2in both sides)
hdc rest of sts except last
2hdc in last ch.
sl st in first st of work
ch 1, hdc in same st
hdc in every st
sl st at first of round, ch 1
cont for rest of body. (18 rounds)
fasten off
strap-
tie yarn into work where strap will be
ch length of strap (55)
sl st strap onto other side front and back.
tysm!!!
Question? Can you make a small octopus plushhhh? Amazing tutorial btw! :3
I’ll think about it! Thanks for the suggestion!
👏👏🤔ok ok I'm going to make it
Hello! Do you have any idea why one of the sides of my bag (the one with the slip stitches) is inclining to the outside? Are we supposed to do the final half double crochet of the round in the previous slip stich or just ignore it? Thank you
I have the same problem! How did you do??
1:41 can I do single crochet instead? Will it still work??.
currently making one
This is so cute and I’m excited to make this! I’m new to crocheting and was wondering if you’d mind explaining when to double crochet under the entire v of the chain vs when to only go through half of the v? Thank you! Love your videos :)
Thank you! We go under half the V for the first round only. This is when we’re working into the foundation chain! From then on, we work under the entire V
@@VivCrochets thank you so much ☺️
Ciao mi sono appena iscritta e ti seguo dall'italia... Mi piacciono molto i tuoi progetti e per questo vorrei chiederti... Qui da noi sta per arrivare l'estate... Posso realizzare questa borsa bellissima in cotone invece che in lana? Grazie infiite e complimenti.. Un saluto dall'italia 💜💜💜
thank u for the tutorial
No problem! Should be 74 stitches actually, since we do two instead of one 4 times
I did a puff stitch bag by wooly wonders crochet I did the strap in this video
hey viv am I going into the back loop or through the whole v when turning work?
Hello! just wanted to ask if I can use yarn meant for 4mm hooks instead of 5? Will it be smaller or different? And what does weight 4 yarn mean? sorry for asking a lot i’m just starting crochet😅
No problem! Yes, you can but it will end up being a little smaller than mine. Yarn weight is the thickness of the yarn. You can make yours bigger by doing more chains in the beginning!
I'm working on it now, then beginning was pretty hard to follow lol ngl 😅🙃❤️❤️💅
Bonito bolso me gusta
What do i do if i want the bag to have multiple colors?
im on my 5th round and the bag is curving outwards instead of straight. do you know why this is happening? thank you love your vid’s!!
Same with mine, I think I’m accidentally increasing but I can’t figure out where
How did you do it please I’m so confused 😔🔫
Mine looks like a mountain I can’t fold it
When I added rounds it looked so weird I’m a failure 😀
U go girl, Yandy ❤
at the end of every round do we have to do 2 double crochets in the last stitch? or just 1
Just 1! We don’t want to add anymore stitches otherwise the sides wont be straight
so cute
Thank you!
hii how many chains did you do in the one in the thumbnail?
Mine keeps on increasing on one side and i I don't know what to do. Also do we have to half double crochet in the same stitch we did the slip stitch??😢
