Chunky Rucksack
Ever wanted to whip up a bag that’s totally you? This chunky crochet rucksack pattern is here to make it happen!
Designed for beginners to intermediate makers, this pattern walks you through every step – from the plush body and colourful accents to the secure drawstring closure and comfy wide straps. Use your fave yarn and mix colors to match your style – the possibilities are endless!
Each page is packed with clear photos and easy-to-follow instructions, so you can stitch up a bag that’s as unique as your creativity.
The pattern is written in English and uses U.S terminology.
A basic knowledge of stitches is advised but instructions for special stitches are included.
You can easily substitute the yarn in the pattern for another. If changing ply simply adjust your hook size accordingly. This will however affect the finished size.
