Crochet a tote bag

Image
By

Crochet totes became popular among crafters long time ago.

Every beginner crocheter would love to work on a crochet bag. Totes are easy compared with all the other projects. 

How to start a crochet tote as a beginner?

If you know the basics of crochet, it is not a hard game.

There are several methods to follow.

You will need 

  • Measuring tape
  • Tapestry needle
  • Hook 
  • Yarn 
  • Stitch markers
Here is the simplest way I have experienced to crochet a tote.

First thing first is consider what measurement you need. 

  • Make a chain long enough for the size of your preferred width

  • Single crochet in the 2nd row

  • Before starting the 3rd row, join both ends of your worked piece so that now you have a round band. Now you will be working on rounds, not by rows. (Make sure the round is not twisted while joining.

  • Put a Stitch marker at the beginning of the round. Single crochet all around the round(better if you can count to avoid crooked work?

  • Work on Single crochets until you have the preferred height of the base. 

  • Moving from base to the body of the tote.

  • Choose Any texture pattern you prefer or just you may work on half double or double or trebble crochet stitches

  • After finishing the base, work behind the Single crochet stitches(of the base) to start the body.

  • Continue until you have the height.

  • It would be better to do few rounds of Single crochets at the end of the circumference .

  • Measure and crochet the handle.

  • Turn your work into the wrong side

  • Sew the base with help of Tapestry needle. 

  • Sew the angles of the base. 

  • Turn 

  • That's it. The tote is ready.

This method can only be used for square or rectangular bags.

There are several other methods which you can do like circular etc.

GREAT WAYS TO IMPROVE LIFE AT HOME

By
 Spending a peaceful life at home is everyone's intention. After all, if you do or don't have peace in your life, you must learn how to improve life quality. It is so unhappy to hear from people about the toxic quality of life they have at home. Many loves to live in peace and follow a good lifestyle, but they claim that they have got a toxic household, big family issues, don't have a personal room etc. Some say that they would improve their lifestyle into a better quality of life if they have a room all alone or get out from the family and goes to live alone, but these thoughts works only fifty per cent. I have witnessed, many of my friends said so. Once they got a room all alone, or they shifted alone, absolutely nothing changed in their lifestyle. Their lifestyle went on and on like • Getting up at 2 am • Eating breakfast • No lunch • Wash • Sitting on the computer for hours/ on mobile • Going to sleep at 3 or 4 o clock am. You don't need everything al...

How quarantine changed lifestyle

By
 There is nothing to explain more about the prevailing pandemic conditions as we have already acknowledged about that. There are few things, no, not few things, many things have change in people's life due to this. Some to better, some from better to worse,  or worse to the worst. To say, more than the bright side of quarantine, bad side is more to talk.  I can see how people have changed their day and lifestyle. It is really disappointing to watch how people make night time as their day and the daytime as night. Many tend to be awake all nights just like owls. This practice is not good for health.
