The Ladybird Garden Bag

This crochet design combines bold flowers, textured leaves, and tiny ladybirds to create a playful, eye-catching accessory. The strap is made from individual motifs, giving the bag lots of detail and character, while the structured flower round base makes it both practical and decorative. It’s a cheerful piece, perfect for adding a touch of colour and fun to your outfit.

Bag: DK weight cotton yarn (sample uses Scheepjes Softfun)

Ladybird: 2-ply yarn or 4-ply yarn split in half

Skill Level
Intermediate - basic stitches , front post stitches, working in the round, and joining motifs.

The pattern includes instructions in both UK and US terms, with charts and step-by-step photos where required.

You can rearrange the small flowers and leaves to suit your own taste and preferences - use fewer or more motifs, adjust placement, and make the bag uniquely yours.
