Turning A $3 T-shirt Into A Trendy Crochet Bag ✨👛

[@glsmith3072]

Team:DONT CUT. Love the uniqueness of the purse. It's so cute and very stylish. You can also dye it later and and/or add jewels or beads to the cords for different looks. So many style options. Love it. Tfs.

[@addyyy077]

yess!! it looks so cute with the strings not cut! 🫶🏼

[@GattoCaffè]

That would be amazing!

[@Lovewinsall2]

It looks artistic and unique with them not cut and it also looks freaking cute

[@IJustWantAMocha]

Fr I see comments with TEAM CUT. TEAM DONT. I 100% agree on not cutting. It’s HER work not everyone else’s uk? So like…cmon I think it’s beautiful and it gives that look she was after!

[@oldmomma56]

@@IJustWantAMochashe could also attach beads to the loose ends to add some bling!

[@saadiasheik4900]

Thread charms or beads on the hanging pieces and tie them on. pearls would be really cute

[@JENerationDIY]

Ooooh i love this idea!

[@saadiasheik4900]

Omg! I can't believe you liked my idea. I love you Jen! 😍

[@origamigirl2904]

Team CUT as a crocheter, I love the loose strands but I feel like there is a better way to express that. Maybe after weaving in your ends, you could have gradient tassels around the top of the bag and maybe even a crochet pocket in the front. Whatever you choose it will be amazing that's for sure! Pro-tip: to avoid stretchiness line the inside with some kind of fabric like how they do with some crochet tote bags!

[@cindyduran7287]

I love the simplistic way you showed how to make the t-shirt yarn. Prior to watching your tutorial it seamed very time consuming. You show a cool and easy way to get it done. Thank you.

[@JENerationDIY]

Yess it’s super easy!

[@yazminmercado5075]

It’s so cute, you did a fantastic job. I would definitely cut the thread, at least on the strap for a cleaner look.

[@GattoCaffè]

You don’t have to cut the threads you can hide them by pulling the yarn through each stitch, that’s what I usually do with every project but with stuffs animals I just pull the yarn through the body and cut the ends. Hope this helps!

[@donutgirlbegamin]

DIY Jen is back! I'm so excited to see what you've made! 😀💖

[@WauMau00]

The purse looks so great! Love the loose threads personally

[@patriciadebatlle4245]

My friends have been obsessed with lost since forever and I actually watched it all like 2 years ago and they were so right for being obsessed, it's one of the best shows ever

[@JENerationDIY]

Ugh it’s sooo good! Wish more people knew about it

[@patriciadebatlle4245]

@@JENerationDIY i knowww what season are you in btw?

[@arsonist127]

you can also use old stockings to make yarn btw!! i made a small plush keychain from a pair of stockings

[@YoumnaR]

I like the look of the loose threads so much

[@lornatw]

Everytime I hear your music I reach for shazam thinking why don't I know the name must have been on the radio etc. Literally obsessed and you deserve so much more recognition for these songs. They always make me so warm and emotional lol and good to sing along ❤

[@savanahwatson9064]

I love hearing you talk about shows while you’re doing a project!!

[@unfilteredmagic]

the bag turned out so cute!! you could turn some of the lil hanging pieces into cute lil bows instead. my fave part of your bag is the colorblocked strap!!

[@lisasteenberg5973]

It turned out SO CUTE!! I love the random end pieces. It gives it cool texture. I've been wanting to make t-shirt yarn for a while. Someday I'll try it. 😄

[@Spookdog]

wait this is such a fun idea!! I've heard of t shirt yarn but idk this project was so cute it's inspiring me to dig thru my old t shirts and see what I can turn into yarn. had no idea t shirt yarn was that easy to make. also fyi from a person obsessed with making crochet bags, what you can do to make the straps less stretchy is slip stitch along the edges bc that tends to keep it tighter :)

[@JENerationDIY]

oooh thank u for the tip!

[@lonnielove8452]

this is such a cool purse! I love the sustainability. This will help with all my college T's I don't want to give away

[@viivi4196]

I think the hanging pieces of yarn somehow make it look more expensive - like if you got that from some brand it would be much more expensive cause it looks artsy or whatever

[@ruthlopez5548]

Thats the perfect timing for this video for me cause i recently started crocheting again ❤❤❤❤❤ me thats giving me motivation

[@whyareyallstillhere]

I AM SO HAPPY YOU ARE BACK!!!!❤️😭😁 also the bag is super cute

[@tarynknight7922]

"Lost" is SUCH a good show!! I watched it a few years ago and absolutely fell in love with it. Also THE PURSE!!!!😍 please keep the strands they're so cute!

[@KaylaFulton-m9l]

UGHHH I JUST LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH AND THE SONGS!!!!!!!

[@softiepeachies_827]

This is literally perfect timing- I just finished two sewing projects

[@quemma]

aaaaa as a crochet artist i love seeing you crochet!

[@laureenmargaretpineda9368]

Team cut it but if you want to leave it it’s totally fine it’s your choice by the way your so talented you made my day so much better

[@luvpetra]

the bag turned out so cuuuteee!! you slayed like always

[@zaain.65]

just found this video and i loved your vibe right away😭

[@softballstar72]

YESSS!!! DONT CUT!! You should totally try to add charms beads anything to make it to your style!

[@nicoledaniels-u6v]

I love the bed I think I'm going to try to make me one. you just gave me a good idea.

[@deamonsimi4110]

It's so cute! I love the loose threads, but if you don't like them, you can just pull them through the stitches to hide. It'll be more secure than cutting them at the knot and risking them coming undone. You should also add a lining to protect it from stretching out. Good job as a new crocheter!! I love seeing more ppl pick it up 😊

[@olivia_mae_karate11]

I’d say weave in the ends, not for the looks but for the quality of the bag. If those strands get cut, wherever you switched colors could start unraveling

[@mayathompson7151]

Crocheting is so cool, you have made me want to do it so badly

[@મનસી]

i def reccomend it gets more fun after you learn the basic stitches and how to make basic things!!

[@dearrene]

I honestly never understood crocheting ad envied people who had the skill! But now, you have inspired me to make my own baggi! Hehe! I'll try my best

LOST was my moms SHOOOOWWW like she LOVED it.

[@robynr]

It’s so cute! I say keep the strings. They remind me of tassels and would be so fun to play with. 😂

[@lilyolo]

TIE THE THREADS INTO BOWS 🎀🎀 ITS COQUETTE

[@shannon_kate]

finally someone else who likes lost!!

[@missameric_ana]

omg YES i relate to what u said sm because im such an introvert by nature so whenever it gets silent (even on non romantic scenarios) i feel so bad about myself as if i should be doing more to make it more interactive lol

[@fitbx]

it turns out soo cutee

[@jamiececilielange5249]

I think the loose threads are fine, but if you ever have a crochet project with threads you want to get rid of, it is safer to weave them in rather than cutting them right where they come from.

[@RhymingMime]

It came out so good!!

[@iyalorrainefontanilla980]

more t shirt yarns content pls it is so interesting and very satisfying to watch so cute

[@sakshichaddha8416]

Wow the bag looks pretty good ❤❤

I binged watched love is blind too. Btw, awesome idea! ❤

[@uzzucrochet1821]

[@marccolomayt82094]

[@AndreaRuiz-u4l]

You should make a bow out of the rest of the fabric and put it on the front to add more spice✨rlly cute btw

[@JENerationDIY]

Ooooh love this idea

This is genius

[@Mossycobbl]

A small how would actually be so cute on it

[@BlessedCarandang]

watching this made me want to restart my 3 days of hard work crocheting a bag pack

[@yonas4175]

cut the loose thread babes 😭

[@thequeenn00b]

Ahahahaa right?? I was thinking how out of touch I was because that looks busted to me but I’m not the only one apparently

[@JENerationDIY]

😭😭😭😭

[@livchadbon2356]

You can weave the threads in too but I think it’ll help the bag look even cleaner ✨

Hii i know im so late to this video but may i ask what crochet you used? I mean like what is the size if yk what i mean😭 im a beginner too that's why i dont know much

[@sederiaasha8699]

I love it keep the strings

[@shatakshipandey8014]

Just make bows of the uncut yarn and set it on this purse. Solves the purpose.

[@jj2517]

cute purse 😩 you can totally sell those!

[@shofia_2905]

Add some pins and i think it kinda match the aesthetic of newjeans 🐰 cool and cute!!

When I was a beginner, I also couldn’t count rows 😭

Omg now I wanna learn how to crochet 😭🦋

[@karisap]

If you do opt for no hanging threads, WEAVE them in!! That way they won't come undone ever! But I think either way it's cute

[@Doodles2468]

What thrift store did u go to??!! It looked like it had great selection:)

Hey, where did you have the red jacket ? 😊 2:30

omg its so cuteeeee

[@seliacopeland]

Lost is so cool. 🎉

[@vyluvsyou]

i actually love the loose threads on the body of the bag but i perhaps would cut the ones on the straps

[@hannah-eg5tc]

one of my teachers at school collects plastic grocery bags and does the same thing, turning the bags into “plarn” and making the bags. then she donates the bags so the homeless can use them!

its so cute! reminds me of neopolition ice cream
