Cat Tote Bag

 This is a tote bag with two 3D cat sew on the front. Especially for cat lovers, this should be the tote bag for you. Then again, anyone who love tote bag, this is a lovely and quite easy to make, tote bag. I used cotton yarn and a 4 mm hook. I crochet with 2 strand of yarn o make the bag more firm. 


 The tutorial video : 




You can make it smaller if you like. I start with chain 50 plus 1. Start from 2nd chain from hook do single crochet (sc) on the bump side, all around. At the end of the row, chain (ch) 1 and turn and do sc till the end. Do this for 6 rows. You can do more if you want. This is the base of the bag. If you want a wider base, do more rows but the top part is in another pattern and that pattern is in a multiple of 4. So when you add or reduce the number of stitches for the base and the bottom part, just make sure it is in a multiple of 4 too.

After 6 rows, ch 1, do sc all around the rectangle and slip stitch to the first stitch. Next row, work only on the back loop, do half double crochet (or a special double crochet, refer to video) all around. The following row do half double crochet (special double crochet) for about 10 rows then cut yarn and we change color and pattern. The number of rows is up to you. 

This part, I changed color and pattern. Can start from anywhere. Ch 3 (which count as a double crochet). Then double crochet (dc) in the next stitch, ch 1, dc in the same stitch, dc in the next stitch. Skip 1 stitch before we repeat (dc, dc, ch 1, dc in the same, dc) - which count as 1 petal. Repeat this all around for as many number of rows as you like, depending how big you wan the bag to be. 

Bag strap, make Tunisian stitch, I made 5 stitch before I yarn over all, that is 2 by 2 till I complete all (refer  to video). You can do more to make a wider strap. I also added a zip at the top. That is optional.
