This trendy design for a t-shirt yarn handbag is a perfect size to hold those essentials and looks chic at the same time.

It’s worked from the bottom up in unturned and continuous rounds. The bag is worked in the Single Crochet stitch making it beginner friendly and a quick make. The construction of the handle of the bag is a little more intricate but gives a lovely finish to the bag. Don’t worry as there are multiple video tutorials to guide you along the way.

For the blue and red one, I used less than 1 skein of t-shirt yarn, approximately 400g. The finished measurements are width 28cm by height 27cm (including the handle). For the 3 colour one I used less than 1 skein of Circulo Yarns Premium t-shirt yarn, approximately 152g. The finished measurements are width 23cm by height 25cm (including the handle).

The pattern comes with written, photo and plenty video tutorials that explain all the stitches and techniques involved so you cannot go wrong. There is no need to look elsewhere for a tutorial!
