Knitted accessories and linen have long been included in women's everyday life. And this is not only socks, scarves, hats and mittens, but also jewelry and handbags. Few people know that this item can be made using a crochet hook not only from the usual yarn, but also from other alternative options. For example, from jute. This material can be purchased at a hardware store and is intended for household needs. Now let's look at the process of creating a crochet bag and the necessary materials.
What you need to knit a bag
To create any product, the preparatory stage is important. In addition to choosing the model you like, it includes creating a pattern and purchasing the required materials.
- Jute rope in sufficient quantities. In order to calculate it, you need to link sample pattern. And with its help, make calculations using the pattern.
- Hook. The size of the tool depends on the desired density. You can select it experimentally by making several samples of different sizes.
- Blank for handles. This can be either a finished wooden or metal handle, or a rubber or plastic tube. It will subsequently be tied with the main thread. The combination of jute and bamboo handles, which can be purchased at a craft store, looks especially beautiful.
- Locking mechanism: zipper, buttons, briefcase lock and so on.
- Additional accessories: rings, handle fastenings and other elements.
- Some models may require yarn.
- Decorative details. It can be an elegant flower made of leather or yarn, an original keychain or pendant, or any element of your choice.
Reference! The decor can be made yourself from pieces of leather, beads, beads, sequins or in another way.
