Ribbed Bag / Shell Bag

Some called it ribbed bag some, shell bag. You can customize one. I used multi color t-shirt yarn and a 6 mm hook. Besides t-shirt yarn, you can use nylon yarn or ribbon yarn or maybe cotton yarn too. This time round I used a plastic bag handle instead.

The tutorial video :

1) I started with a chain 24. You can start with a lesser or more chain to make the bag bigger or smaller. Next step, do single crochet (sc) until the end of the row in which I have 23 stitches. [total 23]

2) Chain (ch) 1, turn the work. From now on work only on the back loop. Sc in the next 10 stitches. 2 sc in the same stitch (inc) in the next 3. Sc in the next 10. [total 26]

3) Ch 1, turn, sc in the next 12, inc next 3, sc in the next 11. [total 29]

4) Ch 1, turn, sc next 13, inc next 3, sc next 13. [total 32]

5) Ch1, turn, sc next 14, inc next 3, sc next 15. [total 35]

6) Ch 1, turn, sc next 16, inc next 3, sc next 16 [total 38]

7] Ch 1, turn, sc next 18, inc next 3, sc next 17 [total 41]

8) Ch 1, turn, sc next 19, inc next 3, sc next 19 [total 44]

9) Ch 1, turn, sc next 20, inc next 3, sc next 21 [total 47]

10) Ch 1, turn sc next 22, inc next 3, sc next 22 [total 50]

11) Ch 1, turn and sc next 50 [total 50] Repeat until you reach the width / length that you want.

Once you have reach the width / length that you want, will start to do decease (dec), that is do 2 together.

1) Ch 1, turn sc next 22, dec next 3, sc next 22 [total 47]

2) Ch 1, turn, sc next 20, dec next 3, sc next 21 [total 44]

3) Ch 1, turn, sc next 19, dec next 3, sc next 19 [total 41]

4) Ch 1, turn, sc next 18, dec next 3, sc next 17 [total 38]

5) Ch 1, turn, sc next 16, dec next 3, sc next 16 [total 35]

6) Ch1, turn, sc next 14, dec next 3, sc next 15. [total 32]

7) Ch 1, turn, sc next 13, dec next 3, sc next 13. [total 29]

8) Ch 1, turn, sc next 12, dec next 3, sc next 11. [total 26]

9) Ch 1, turn, sc next 10, dec next 3, sc next 10 [total 23]

10) Ch 1, turn, sc until the end of the row [total 23]

The number of increase row and the number of decrease row have to be the same. If you choose to do only 5 rows of increase, make sure you do 5 rows of decrease. Now the top part of the bag, I do sc all around. Next row I do slip stitch (ss) only on the back loop. Every 3 ss, skip a stitch. Repeat until the end. The next 5 rows, do ss on the back loop, all around. The last row do sc on the back loop all around and add the bag strap too. In my case, is a plastic bag handle that look like bamboo.

Peony Flower

This is a big flower compare to the other crochet flowers. You will need cotton yarn, wire and some flower making green tape. I also added a chop stick, or you can use any wood or metal, to hold the flower as it is quite heavy with so many petals and wire. I used 3 different colors for the whole flower. The tutorial video : The Core Part (use yellow yarn) 1) Chain 9, do 3 single crochet (sc) in the 2nd stitch from the hook, sc in the next, slip stitch (ss) until the end, which you will have 6 ss all in. Chain 9 and repeat the whole thing, all in 8 sets. 2) Chain 10, 3 sc in the 2nd stitch from hook. Sc in the next and ss in the following stitches until the end of the chain, all in 7 ss. Make 9 sets. 3) Chain 11, 3 sc in the 2nd stitch from the hook. Sc in the next and ss in the following stitches until the end of the chain, all in 8 ss. Make 10 sets. 4) Chain 1, do sc on the next 27 stitches on the base. 5) Chain 1, turn the work, [sc in the next 2, do a 2 together (dec)] - 6 sets,

Tiny Top Hat

Hope you make lovely hats for your amigurumi. Do remember to subscribe to my Youtube channel and follow me on Facebook , Shopee , Tiktok and Instagram . Thank you for your support.

Crochet Mooncake

This is my second crochet mooncake. This pattern is different from my first crochet mooncake. I made two version. One with lace yarn and a 2 mm hook and another with cotton yarn and a 3 mm hook. The lace yarn mooncake is smaller than the cotton yarn mooncake due to the size of the yarn and hook yet both are equally lovely and look quite like the real thing.

Make 8 single crochet (sc) into the ring [total 8] 2) Make 2 sc into each stitch (inc) [total 16] 3) (Sc, inc) - 8X only on the back loop [total 24] - If bottom piece, no need back loop only 4) (Sc, inc, sc) - 8X [total 37] 5) (Sc next 3, inc) - 8X only on the back loop [total 40] - If bottom piece, no need back loop only 6) (Sc next 2, inc, sc next 2) - 8X [total 48] 7) (Sc, half double crochet (hdc) next 2, 2 double crochet (dc) in the same stitch, hdc next 2, sc, slip stitch) - 6X After complete the top piece,
