Pattern Instructions

Bag Base

Round 1: Magic Circle & Foundation

Create a magic circle.
Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc).
11 dc into the magic circle (total 12 dc including ch 3).
Tighten the circle and sl st into top of ch 3 to close round.
Save

After finishing this, you’ll have a neat circle with 12 double crochets – the foundation for your bag. Pull the tail to close the magic circle as tightly as you can.

Round 2: Increasing (BLO)

Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc).
1 dc into same st (BLO).
2 dc in BLO of each st around.
End with sl st in top of ch 3. (24 dc total)

You are now doubling the number of stitches using back loop only, creating a sturdy base.

Round 3: Increase Pattern (BLO)

Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc).
1 dc into same st (BLO).
1 dc in BLO next st.
Repeat: 2 dc in BLO next st, 1 dc in BLO next st around.
Sl st to join. (36 dc total)

Follow this rhythm – increase in one stitch, single dc in the next. The circle will grow evenly.

Round 4: Further Increase (BLO)

Ch 3 (counts as dc).
1 dc into same st (BLO).
1 dc in BLO into next 2 sts.
Repeat: 2 dc in BLO next st, 1 dc in BLO next two sts.
Sl st to join. (48 dc total)

You’re now spacing your increases every third stitch for expanding the base.

Round 5: Building Up Size (BLO)

Ch 3 (counts as dc).
1 dc into same st (BLO).
1 dc in BLO next 3 sts.
Repeat: 2 dc in BLO next st, 1 dc in BLO next 3 sts.
Sl st to join. (60 dc total)

The bag base is growing. Keep increases spaced apart for a flat circle.

Round 6: Final Round (BLO)

Ch 3 (counts as dc).
1 dc into same st (BLO).
1 dc in BLO next 4 sts.
Repeat: 2 dc in BLO next st, 1 dc in BLO next 4 sts.
Sl st to join. (72 dc total)

If you want a larger bag, continue this pattern (adding another dc between increases each round). For this design, stop at 72 dc.

Your base should now measure about 7 inches in diameter. If you want it bigger, continue increasing as shown.

Final Round: Single Crochet Edge

Work 1 sc in each st around.
Sl st to join.
Save

This row tightens up the edge, making it easier to join and decorate.

Flower Petals

Begin Flower Petals Using FLO (Front Loop Only):

Insert hook into a front loop (where slip stitch ended).
Join yarn, ch 3 (counts as dc).
2 dc in same st (3 dc total).
3 dc in next st.
Ch 1, turn, 2 sc in each dc (12 sc total).
Skip 4 sts on base, sl st into 5th st. Turn.

This creates a petal shape anchored to the bag base.

Petal Slip Stitch Row

In each sc: sl st, ch 1, across (12 total).
Skip 4 sts on base, sl st into 5th. Turn.
Save

You add a decorative effect to the petal.

Repeating Petal

Ch 3, 2 dc in same st (3 total).
3 dc each in next 2 sts (9 dc).
Ch 1, turn, 2 sc in each dc (18 sc total).
Skip 5 sts on base, sl st into 6th. Turn.

Each petal becomes larger and more pronounced. Repeat for each petal until you circle the base.

Petal Edging

In each sc across: sl st, ch 1 (18 total).
Skip 5 sts, sl st into 6th.
Ch 3, repeat as for previous petals.

Continue until all petals are formed and attached.

Second Bag Panel

Repeat Bag Base and Flower Petals process to create a second panel.

Make sure your panels match in size and petal arrangement.

Assembly & Finishing

Leave Space for Bag Handles

Count 8 sts on each side for handle placement; mark with stitch marker.
Attach ring/handle using sc stitches through the bag and handle ring.
Repeat for second side.
Save

This step attaches your handle securely to the bag.

Joining Panels

Slip stitch (or sc) panels together around the edge, leaving handle opening.
Make sure to align petals and base evenly.
Weave in all loose yarn ends securely.

Your flower bag panels are now firmly attached and ready for use.

Pattern Guidance (for Non-Pattern Readers)

If you find the pattern format confusing, just follow these steps:

Start by making a circle using double crochets and increasing each round as instructed.
Add a single crochet row before starting the flower sections.
Make petals by joining new yarn, working double crochets, increasing for each petal, then adding slip stitch decorations.
Make two panels in total (same process for both).
Attach your handles by joining the bag edges using single crochet stitches.
Sew or slip stitch the panels together around the edge, leaving space for the handles.

You begin the flower bag project by crocheting a round base using double crochet and increasing rounds, then edging with single crochet. Flower petals use double crochet, single crochet, and slip stitch techniques hooked into the front loops. The bag is assembled by slip stitching or single crocheting around the sides and attaching handles.
