by

This season we’re on the move, and we’re betting you are too. If you need a new on-the-go tote, we’ve got the perfect knitting project bag for you.

 

The Granny Square Bag is a stylish bag with a vintage flair. This yarn bag is made with multiple granny squares, and a minimalist handle made from the single crochet stitch.

It’s the perfect size for rushing around, and getting things done. It looks trendy and professional with its rounded shape. And the pattern of the granny squares adds a little fun.

The Granny Square Bag is made from a beautiful, soft worsted yarn. The Cascade 220 Yarn, from our site MakerDrop.com comes in a myriad of shades, but this yarn tote uses an elegant white and silver gray.

This crochet bag pattern looks beautiful with everything. It’s so easy to grab and go. And it’s really fun to make too!

Crochet Pretty Scallop Pattern Necklace – A Delicate DIY You Can Make With Thread, Wire and Beads

If you love crochet jewelry projects that feel a little bit pretty and a little bit unexpected, this Crochet Pretty Scallop Pattern Necklace is such a fun one to try. It uses simple supplies like crochet thread, a hook, 24-gauge craft wire, and a few beads to create a lightweight statement necklace with a soft scalloped edge.

What I like about this project is that it feels a bit different from the usual crochet accessory patterns. Instead of yarn-only construction, the crochet is worked directly around wire, then finished with scalloped stitches and tiny beads for extra detail. The pattern is built in clear rounds, starting with chain loops around the wire, then adding double crochet scallops and a decorative final edging.

It’s definitely the kind of project that would appeal to crafters who enjoy mixing techniques. A little crochet, a little jewelry making, a little bead glueing, and suddenly you’ve got something that looks boutique without needing a huge pile of supplies. I can also see this being a nice stash-buster for leftover crochet thread, which we all know has a habit of lingering in drawers forever.

Another nice touch is that the design is easy to personalize. The tutorial suggests trying different yarn colors and bead choices, which makes this one of those projects you could recreate a few times and still get a completely different look each round.

If you’re after a crochet necklace pattern that’s feminine, handmade, and a little bit vintage-looking, this one is well worth a look. It’s sweet, wearable, and just unusual enough to make people ask, “Wait… you made that?”
