[@dymonblango4690]

It took me a span of 3 days to make this bag. I was so proud of myself when I finished! Thanks you for the detailed tutorial!! I used a 5mm hook and it turned out fine

[@KenikseCrochet]

Well done!!❤️

[@sunshiineelephants9266]

Do u think I can use a 5.5 my hook (the rest of my hooks r at my mama house and I can’t get them till Friday and I’m impatient 😅)

It took me 1 week

[@CookwithKris]

What type of yarn did you used ?

[@AMSUNSHYNE]

Once I had the squares ready I had no idea how to pull them together to make the bag. I did sun moon and stars for my granddaughters😮 besty of 19 years.I found your voice pleasant and your tutorial very good. You answered my questions, before I asked. It was so easy with your instructions. Thanks to you, I managed to finish this bag in style. Thank you!

[@KenikseCrochet]

Well done! 🫶 I’m glad this helped

I never comment anything but OMG THANK YOU! It's my first "bigger" project as i started a month ago, and your video was so clear, well explained and easy to follow, thanks for taking the time to explain everything, i now have a super cool bag 🥰

[@MechthildKreuser]

Thank you for this great tutorial. After finishing my sunflowers, I was looking for a tutorial on how to stitch them together for a bag and also how to create handles for it. So I followed along with your tutorial, over several days, and now I am finally finished with my first bag and I am already creating granny squares for my second bag for one of my friends. I am left-handed, so the part for the handles was a bit confusing for me at first, but then I realized that I need to start from the left side and go to the right side and it worked fine!

[@tyrastafverfeldt7782]

Now I am finiched with the bag, it turned out really pretty and this tutorial was the best tutoriel I have followed!! because you explaned everything very well, I thought the bag would turn out a little bit bigger then it did, but that didn't bother me too much🥰🥰

At First I made the exact size of squares and almost stich them then it was turning in small size bag but I wanted a spacious tote bag then I unstitch it and added 2 DC rows in every square and then it turned out pretty good like the one I desired ✨

[@EmilyGable-rr8zp]

Hey! Idk if you’ll see this but I’m a beginner and wondering how you did this! I’ve already finished 8 squares so it may be too late lol, but it’s starting to come out so small and I was hoping for a larger tote!

[@anm.0364]

Hi! I have a thinner yarn which works great with a 3.0mm hook, can someone tell me if they think the bag would still turn out good if I use this size? The yarn is mercerized cotton so I don’t think it will stretch to much… please let me know!!!

[@HoneyyyZ]

You have to make more squares depending on your bag size

[@ASA-bl3hw]

The squares will be smaller and the overall bag

[@anm.0364]

Update in case anyone has the same question: I made it just added two extra rows in each granny and it turned out great!

[@keeleyhobbs2876]

Once you’ve finished the granny square, is it possible to add another row of the white colour to make the tote bag bigger? If so, what would the pattern be? Many thanks! ❤

[@southside.lesbian]

Yes to make the bag bigger you'd want to make your squares bigger. You can either do a row of single crochet or another row of double crochet clusters, I'd recommend doing clusters so that you don't get confused. I would add in another color so that it's not too much white but that's your choice ❤

[@cherylrobertson5338]

I absolutely loved your tutorial. I would have found it much more helpful if you had keep the layout in view for more than a second before you turned it. I thought you were a great teacher. I am a visual learner so one second longer would be helpful. Thank you so much I am making a few bags ❤😊

[@tishasultana7792]

What yarn would be best?

[@Flona-y6f]

she mentioned she used acrylic

[@ih4tecsh]

for bags it's better to use cotton because acrylic stretches

[@sakshigawali1071]

I love your videos and learned alot from you … Thank you!!! Which yarn to use cotton or acrylic? I’m a beginner in crochet please let me know

[@ASA-bl3hw]

Cotton is better for a bag 🎒

[@ASA-bl3hw]

You can still use acrylic but it may stretch more than cotton

[@KenikseCrochet]

I used 100% acrylic for this one 🫶🏼

When making the bag straps do u skip the two front squares (single crochet) to connect the strap? Great tutorial love it btw

[@KenikseCrochet]

Yup! You should join your chain skipping two sides of the squares 🫶

Thank you! They’re 10x10cm

If you wanted to make it bigger, how many squares would you think it would be appropriate? Cause my granny squares look smaller and I'm afraid it would end up tiny

[@anuthapa5809]

Mine turned way too small then expected 😢😢 i assume you should do the last white one with two row

Hii! I really like this pattern and i want to make it with cotton yarn but its really thin, i've modified the seeds part of the sunflower by adding another row with an increase in each stitch. Would this still work with the pattern?

[@KenikseCrochet]

Hi! If you increase in any row, remaining pattern will not work so you would have to work it out for upcoming rows 🫶

Could you please tell me how much yarn I need lenghtwise in each color? Preferably in meters. I might use a different type of yarn that’s not as thick/slim as yours so I think it’s easier to calculate how much I need in length instead of weight 😊

[@Sleepygiraffes]

How do you hide the tails, I cut my first one off and it broke I tried to find other videos but it didn’t help

While crotcheing put the string in the middle as if it's the yrn you wanna use so it can get hid in the stitche

Hey! I wanna use 4ply cotton yarn with a 3mm hook (recommended size). Do you think 100gm of that would be enough for the background? The skien is around 380mt or 415 yd.
