Wow, you are too beautiful whomever see you shall believe that God is real, and whenever I see you I am always in a dream, and when we wake up we all will realize that all this life was nothing but a dream and that only God is whats true and real. I dont know how can atheists believe that such a very sexy attractive beauty queen like you came from monkeys hahaha 😄 There was a teacher whom didn't believe in the existence of God, He said to his students do you see God?, the students replied no we don't see God, so the teacher said if you don't see God it means there is no God, then a smart student stood up and said to the other students hey guys do you see the teachers brain?, then the students replied no we don't see the teachers brain, the student then said then the teacher is crazy he got no brain :0) عن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لمن شك في الله، وهو يرى خلق الله Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how a man-man/women-can doubt in the existence of God-/Allah-although he sees His creation. وعن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لمن أنكر النشأة الأخرى، وهو يرى النشأة الأولى Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how any one denies the second life although he/she seen the first life-this life is actually a living proof of both the existence of its creator, as well as a clear proof that indicates that another life in heaven or hell may also be a very possible chance as well-. وعن الإمام علي "عليه السلام": عَجِبتُ لعامر دار الفناء، وتارك دار البقاء Imam Ali, peace be upon him, said: I cant understand how any one inhabits this transient abode-and is so indulged in it-but ignores the everlasting hereafter abode, ​one God for all of us, all the universe shows unity with diversity, there are different things different creatures and different materials but are all made of particles and atoms ​Even if we will assume that there will not be an atom left of you after death, you still have proven as a created being that there is a Creator,you proved the existence of God even if you do not believe in God. ​God initiated everything, and he redo too, and it is evident. ​this life is temporary while the next is forever eternal either in paradise or burning in Hell fire good qualities are beneficial, and bad qualities are harmful So be good & do more good always for God sake and refrain from doing any evil or sin and worship only God alone who got no mother no father no son and is one not two nor three nor more always remember him and be mindful of him and worship him in the way he wants. One of the best good deeds a person can ever do is teaching people useful things or a useful skill 🙂 or caring for another person an elderly parent a wife/husband or a child or an ill person, or protecting an innocent person, Also spreading this message and not letting it stop with you. ,

Great tutorial

[@Lily__BlUeDevil]

Thank you!

[@christinachic6589]

I did it with baby blue instead of pink to match my phone case and it turned out so cute! I’m a beginner so this is one of the more advanced things I’ve done and I’m so proud of it. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@anna-greene]

yess great job!!

[@Vero2726-s8u]

Your video definitely teaches a bag bigger than the other ones! I was looking for a bigger bag and I'm so happy I found your tutorial!

[@swarnamondal8188]

i love this girl Im extremely new to crocheting. I took this project up for my sister's birthday gift. Before this I'd made a solid total of 2 really tiny amigurumi animals haha thats how new i am. the bag turned out kind of decent! obviously a little flaky on the finishes but overall kinda good! All thanks to your really detailed and beginner friendly tutorial

[@anna-greene]

hahaha thanks for watching and for your sweet comment :)

you sticht thight just like me! its so hard to find video tutorials where they also stich tights, I end up making the projects smalle because of my tension. With this video I think i might end up making a bag that is true to size lol. greaet video !

[@0O0oO0oO1]

Excellent video!! Tysm I was actually just abt to make something checkered so this is perfect timing!!

[@anna-greene]

❤️ thanks for watching! lmk if you have any questions!

[@0O0oO0oO1]

@@anna-greene my other color is showing through on the good side, is there a way to fix that?

[@anna-greene]

my bag does show the second color through a little bit, but it isn’t too noticeable in my opinion. what I find helps is right before I change colors, I pull the yarn that I was crocheting over to tighten it and get rid of any loose bits that were poking out, then I change to that color and keep crocheting. just make sure you aren’t tightening too much or it’ll bunch it together. let me know if that helps the problem!

[@0O0oO0oO1]

@@anna-greene yep that helps a lot! Tysm!

[@sereneanniesajan8304]

As a Christian, I rlly wanted a bag I would want to carry my bible, water bottle and my phone to go to church bc I could never find a bag that could just make it proper for me to go to church. So, I made this bag in black and white pattern and it turned out SO cute! I’m gonna take it to church soon and I’m just so happy bc it can also be my bag I could take everywhere with me! 💜🤍

[@variablecheesecake]

i’m using this to make a bag for my friend and it’s such a good tutorial! i was able to make the squares bigger and it still worked out :) i also wanted to ask if you lined your crochet bags cause i’m not sure if it’s worth it

[@Andimlikerawr]

bag well made, video well made-amazing! merci very much :)

[@anna-greene]

thank you:) hope you find it helpful!

[@Jess-ce5ur]

Great tutorial!! I made mine black and white for my sister 🙂

[@samirahjr]

Okay. I am struggling with the second handle. My two sides look so different from each other (because I am crocheting much tighter than you). And because of that I don’t want to start the second handle on the „bad“ side - basically I will have the „bad“ stitches on my „good“ side 😭 and I don’t know how to start in the middle with a decrease 🥺

[@Mariiami77]

This is really great tutorial i made a bag and it turned out amazing❤️

Thnak you soo much . The tutorial was very helpful .

[@shirleykeefer9769]

Very good tutorial! Thank you 😀

[@hafsaamir2080]

Great tutorial!!!

[@SaraBranilovic]

Such an easy tutorial and I absolutely love my result but im wondering why your bag looks much bigger on the screen than mine. I did make mine 2 squares longer so 12x12 squares and mine still looks so much smaller, could it be because of the yarn or is it just the angle

[@reine2212]

The yarn and hook and also your tension, makes a lot of difference

[@sofiakonsta7900]

I really found this video easy to follow! Is it possible to add a zipper on this bag or not?

[@maddox7881]

Looks amazing. I love mine

[@temidayobalepo3107]

Do I have to make it a double crochet or can I make it single crochet? The tutorial looks so easy to follow by the way.😊😊

[@Macaardillaespinoza]

Loved your tutorial! ♥️ I’m working on my bag, but the second color yarn keeps showing up in the squares, and I don’t know how to fix that, do you have any technique? cause your square look great and the second color yarn doesn’t show up! Thank you so much 🫰🏻✨

[@anna-greene]

you can try “floating” the yarn so that you aren’t working over the other color but instead just dropping/picking it back up when you’re ready to change! there should be plenty of tutorials on youtube for how to float your yarn

[@lvhlinh_.]

love your tutorial so muchh

[@anna-greene]

You're so welcome!

[@twinkle3129]

Hi.. I made this too, using your tutorial..🥰💓 May I know how many rows did you add up to make the handles? Just for the reference. Thank you..❤

[@chopper8987]

great tutorial 🌸💜 Thank you 💜💜 can I ask you a question about How many centimeters is the width of the bag? 🥹

[@sabitrarai]

Can u please teach us how to make owl bag charm ?? Please please

[@noelleblack7297]

questionnnnnnnnnnn! if i continued doing more rows, instead of doing two separate panels. like for example, since both panels are 10 squares, what if i continued doing 20 squares in total, and just folded it in half? would that save me some time? or just make it more complicated for me & take longer? thanks!!

[@anna-greene]

hmmmm now that I think about it that might work! if you do decide to do that let me know how that goes!

[@mellicious69]

why does the outside of my second handle become the inside? Bfr I decrease the 2nd handles, I have to pull the strings of yarn up like I did on the 1st handle. Can you explain how?

[@nataliazarubina5014]

Thanks! Very good! Greating from Russia!

[@anna-greene]

❤️ thanks for watching!

[@sally2163]

will it stretch out whe we put things in it?

[@anna-greene]

I think it might if you have lots of heavy items but it should be okay with lighter items! if you’re worried about it and know how to sew you could sew a fabric lining and that would prevent it from stretching out
