@@AllAboutAmiBlog Those colours are so very beautiful. I already finished 4 squares. And yes, the yarn is wonderful to crochet with. The best cotton yarn I have ever used. I will be sewing a lining in my bag so it won't stretch too much. I can not wait to get it finished. Will you be uploading more tutorials?

[@4327]

Thank you so, so much for sharing. I thought it would be too hard for my skill level, but I loved making this bag - I've done it twice and will do it again! The squares are fun and quick to make, and sewing them together is so satisfying. The graphics, photos, and instructions in your blog are so detailed and clear. The strap was the hardest/most time consuming part - learning that waistcoat stitch! Realized that sizing up my crochet hook on the row before waistcoat stitch made it much easier. I gave one to my sister for her birthday and she loved it so much she started crying. ♥

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

I have 12 of the 12 squares and I'm so close to finishing this but I'm wondering should we block these before sewing or just sew as it is?

Some people like to block the individual squares as they find it easier to seam after blocking! However, if you find that your squares are fairly even and consistent, you can just seam them and block the final bag 👍🏻

[@deekang2139]

What a wonderful video! Thank you so much. I have a question...when doing the SC in the corner chain stitches, it looks like you go into the front of the V stitch, and then catch a stitch at the back before you yarn over. Can you please expand on this?

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

That’s a great question! Just as you insert your hook into both the front and back loops of a regular stitch when working a single crochet, I insert my hook into both the front and back loops of the chain stitches when working the single crochets in there too 👍🏻

[@deekang2139]

@@AllAboutAmiBlog I'm sorry, but I don't understand. The chain stitches only have a V. I usually go under it. Just like on a normal stich, I just go under the V. Am I doing it wrong?

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

The V consists of a front and back loop, so if you’re going under the V, you might be going through both loops? Do you know if the back bump of the chain is under your hook when you insert your hook into the V?

[@deekang2139]

@AllAboutAmiBlog Correct, it is below my hook. All the videos show to just insert your hook under the V forming the top of the stitch, with the bottom part of it below the hook.

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

I think we are doing it the same way then 👍🏻

[@Nar8179]

Thank you for this tutorial! I’m really confused about round 6: if I skip a stitch on both sides, I only manage to get 9 dc not 10! I think I did previous round correctly, with 16 sts on each side, I only get 11 chains before chain 3 space so I can’t seem to get 10 required at round 6. I tried checking video again and your written guidance but can’t figure it out. I have 13 squares finished to round 5 so would be a shame to stop now! Would really really appreciate some help on this.

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

If your stitch count was correct in the previous round, then you are possibly identifying the wrong stitch to skip! Sometimes the stitch that needs to be skipped is “hidden” under the corner stitches!

Heyy just wondering how much yarn did you use I'm planning to make this but I didn't watch the entire vid yet

[@lanaegg9417]

Honestly trying to do the waist stitches were very difficult In the second round and I had to switch to a thinner needle butt I think I'll stich to single crochet in the next view rows for the strap.and I made 180ch because I personally prefer it to be a over the Shoulder strap instead and found 180 fot quite nicely.

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Yes some people have chosen to stick with single crochets! Love how you can adjust the strap length to your liking 👍🏻

[@ArtbyNell]

I used thia tutorial for my granny squares, I would like to make a cardigan out of it but I realized you never did the last row for the caedigan! I used slightly thinner yarns and 5mm crochet hook. Do you think I can use these square or better to remove the last row and make more (smaller) squares? Thank you xx

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Hi there! If you want a more “airy” look, you can keep that last round since it has the chain gaps, but if you want a more solid look, you could remove the last round!

I’m watching this & following the pattern on your blog- but mine seems a little ‘off’. Would you say the granny squares should have pretty tight tension?? I can’t seem to figure it out!

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Hmm are you using the same yarn and hook size? Do your stitch counts match at the end of each round? Does your granny square have the same finished dimensions as mine? I would say it’s decently tight since I didn’t want my bag to stretch too much with time and wear! 🧶

Tipps an alle Deutschen 😊 Ich hatte Schwierigkeiten die richtige Wolle zu finden. Das hier hat für mich geklappt: -Taupe: jeweils 3 Rollen, je 50g (100m) (Da stand noch das hier. Keine ahnung was das bedeutet (10X10 CM , 22M; 28R) ) 80% Bambus 20% Baumwolle. Habe ich bei Tedox gefunden für je 2,50€ - weiß: da habe ich eine halbe Rolle gebraucht. Also ca. 25g. Schaut, dass das genauso dick ist wie die andere Wolle -gelb: da habe ich nur wenig gebraucht. Zur Sicherheit würde ich sagen auch so 25g Meine Tasche ist ein kleines bisschen kleiner geworden, aber vielleicht hilft das ja jemanden beim Wollekauf 😊 Insgesamt hat das Material ca. 10 € gekostet.

Hi there! Only the very first cluster differs because it is the beginning cluster - you need to work it differently to bring the stitches to that height!

Hello, I absolutely love your content and patterns. Although, there is one thing I am very confused about. I have made all my granny squares and am trying to whip stitch them together. I understand the concept, until I get to the corners. I have looked through your blog extensively and watched many tutorials but none of them have the same chain 3 around the corner. Could you please explain how to stitch the corners? Thank you so much for all the effort put into your content! 💗💗

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Thanks for your kind words 🩷 I like to split the chain 3’s like this: one chain belongs to one side and the other chain belongs to the other side. The middle chain can “belong” to both sides so you can stitch through that middle chain when doing both the vertical and horizontal seams!

Some of my pattern testers lined their bags with fabric! Since I don’t have too much experience sewing, I use a bag organizer insert to instantly add zipper closure and compartments. I bought mine on Amazon, and the brand is called “Periea” (the medium size fits in this bag)!

Thank you so much for the amazing video! For the top edging and strap, if I inadvertently did round 2 without chain 85 (did waistcoat stitch all around), is it okay to keep as is and repeat round 2 again?

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

You’re welcome! I think it should be okay if you do that 👍🏻

Hello, I saw and read your pattern on the elephant and I have trouble understanding patterns to read. I was wondering if you could make a video showing how to make it. I have been wanting to make an elephant for a friends birthday coming up, but I am having trouble understanding.

What do you do with the yarn tail when you finish the granny square?? I feel like you’d be able to see it if you wove it into the edge

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

I typically keep that yarn tail and weave it in after all the squares have been seamed together 👍🏻 I find it easier to hide that tail after all the squares have been connected so that you can hide them in some of the seams too!

[@laurac86]

@@AllAboutAmiBlog - I didn’t even think of that but it completely makes sense! 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thank you so much for you reply I just finished all the squares so now I can start putting them together!

I'm a tiny bit confused. Round 5 here is made of double crochet. In the purchased pattern version, it is made of half-double crochet.

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Hi there! I think the pattern you purchased is the “Summer Days Daisy Bag” as Round 5 uses half double crochets for that design! It is a small size bag with one strap. This video here is for the “Breezy Days Daisy Bag” which is a medium size bag that has two straps. I have a separate video for the Summer Days Daisy Bag! 🌼

Hi! I know that you added this video year ago, but i will be glad if you will answer me! Can i use different type of the yarn? Maybe any macrame rope? In my country i can't get this type of yarn, i am begginer so i dont know what i can use to crochet this bag 😢

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Yes you can substitute any yarn you want! The final dimensions and overall look might differ, but you can definitely experiment with yarns that are available to you locally 🧶👍🏻

Love this video but i need some help please. I have all my squares done, but when whipstitching the squares together, do i just go under the chains that are on the edge of the squares? Or does it go through it?

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Thanks for your feedback about the video! Yes when you are whipstitching the granny squares together, you will insert your needle in the front and back loops of both granny squares! You can reference the tutorial photo in the free pattern on my blog to see exactly where to place your needle!

[@annesnijders2866]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Its amazing. I'm trying this right now. I have just one question: I'm currently whipstitching the squares together, with the wrong side facing me. When I start with the top edging and strap, do I still have te "wrong" side facing me or should I turn the back inside out? Again, thank you so much!

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

You’re very welcome! That’s a great question - when you’re working on the top edging and strap, the right side should be facing you! 😊

Hello! I am wondering if i can use a 3.5 mm hook instead and if so, what size yarn for it?

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

I used a 3.75 mm hook for my bag (with worsted weight yarn) so you could still use a 3.5 mm hook with worsted weight yarn!

[@esmem9467]

​@@AllAboutAmiBlogOkay that's great! Thank you!!

[@liliannenguyen2254]

Thank you for this great tutorial! If I don't have 3.75mm and 2.75mm hooks, do you think it will still be similar if I were to use 4.0mm/3.0mm or 3.5mm/2.5mm hooks instead?

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

You can definitely switch up the crochet hook sizes depending on what you have! I would work up a sample granny square using the different hook sizes and see how you like the density of the stitches and the size of the overall square. You don’t want too many holes/gaps and you also don’t want your square to be too small (otherwise your overall bag might be smaller than you expected)!

[@alexwatts9403]

Love the tutorial, but I keep ending up with 13 SC when i finish my second round, where am i going wrong? Thanks x

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

You can check out my video called “Troubleshooting the Crochet Daisy” to see how to count your stitches for that part!

[@pineapples3235]

I’ve already made a bunch of squares and flowers, but I have not figured out why for the flower part, there is some yellow sticking out of the white petals? When we closed off the yellow part w/ a knot, that knot becomes visible, even with the white petals around it.

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

When I crochet over my yarn tails, I find that the knot gets tucked away and hidden! If it pops back out again, you can use a crochet hook to hide it within a petal again!

hi there! great toturial... im here actually to ask about what yarn is the best for making tote bag because i find milk cotton yarn not strong enough to hold my things in the bag.. can you share your opinion maybe on what type of yarn i should try ?? thank you xoxo

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Thanks so much for your feedback 🥰 I find that using 100% mercerized cotton is great for bags! It is very strong and durable and does not stretch or pill easily. My favorite yarn to use for crochet bags is 24/7 Cotton 🧶

What is the size of the granny square in inches ?

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Each granny square is: 5” (12.7 cm) x 5” (12.7 cm) 👍🏻

[@framceslautenschleger1031]

I’m using the same size hook and the cotton yarn, but my squares are only 4x4 instead of 5x5.

[@keepouroceanclean]

Your tension might be tighter, so it’s coming out smaller. Try loosening your hold or increase hook size and see if either of those tips work. Good luck, I’m about to start as well.

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Your tension is probably different than mine! As the other commenter suggested, you can try loosening your tension or move up a hook size if you want your squares to be the same size as mine. You can continue going with your 4x4 squares too - just keep in mind that your overall finished bag will be smaller than my final dimensions!

[@bubbling_beez]

Hello! I just started crocheting last week and I bought a med (4) worsted milk cotton yarn but it looks too bulky compared to yours. I can't even close the yellow magic ring fully. Is yarn thickness different for types of yarn? 😢😢😢

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

That’s amazing how you started crocheting last week! Yeah, there can be different thicknesses even within the same yarn type. I would say that 24/7 Cotton (the yarn I used) is in the thinner side of worsted weight, so it probably is thinner compared to the one you are using!

[@bubbling_beez]

@@AllAboutAmiBlog Thank you sm!! I never knew even having the same weight of yarn could still change the size of the project. I might skip the last round of the squares so my bag don't swallow me lol.

[@clementinereynaud866]

Hello and thank you for the video. When using only one color do you cut the yarn between the different steps or is it possible to continue with the same color without cutting the yarn?

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

You’re very welcome! When you’re using only one color, you do not need to cut the yarn as you can continue using it round by round! You can follow the same instructions, just note that when finishing Round 3, you can slip stitch to the next ch-3 space and then begin Round 4.

[@lucindaviolin]

Just to confirm for round 6, I am supposed to skip a stitch for each dc, EXCEPT for the one right before the corner stitches, right? Also, do you just weave in the very last yarn tail of the square? Or should I leave that until I weave my squares together?

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Yes there will be spaces between the double crochets (you chain 1 in between) and you skip the stitch right after the corner stitches. You can either weave in that final end right away or leave it and weave it in after all the squares have been seamed together!

[@lucindaviolin]

@@AllAboutAmiBlog Thank you for your response! You mentioned in the tutorial that whenever seaming the squares together, the wrong side of the squares should be facing out (so the seams are hidden). Does that mean when I am using yarn strand 2 and 3 to join the sides after folding it upwards, I should turn the bag inside out to sew the sides?

[@ashleyburnette5954]

I'm a bit confused @AllAboutAmiBlog, There is a conflicting instruction between the online pattern and the video when it comes to the first chain 3 and then dc when adding in the 3rd color. On the online pattern it says that the first chain 3 counts as a DC and to do 2 DC then CH 3 then 3 DC, in this pattern you are doing the chain three and then 2 additional DC at the start. thank you

[@AllAboutAmiBlog]

Hi there! That’s right - both are the same! When adding in the third color, you chain 3 to start (which counts as 1 dc), then work 2 dc, chain 3 (forms the chain space) and then 3 dc. These are the corner stitches!

Just wondering about the yarn needle ? Is it an embroidery needle? I have made all 13 squares, but I'm unsure how to proceed... do I tie one strand of yarn into the needle and start whip stitching?

I use a bent tip tapestry needle to sew the squares together - you can see the link in the materials section of the pattern (free on my blog)! You can thread the yarn through the needle, leave some of the end sticking out (which you will later weave in), and then start whip stitching 👍🏻
