Frequently asked questions
How is the bag assembled?
You crochet a flat rectangular panel to your desired length, fold it in half, and join the side edges with a slip-stitch seam to form the pouch.
Can I make the bag a different size?
Yes. The pattern says to crochet to the length you want before folding, so you can lengthen or shorten the panel; just keep the starting chain at 20 to maintain the 10cm width.
What do I need for the crossbody strap?
The chart covers the pouch body worked over 10+ rows; you'll add your own strap (a long chain or cord) to wear it crossbody.
