This Crochet Tribal Bag is made from T-shirt recycled yarn. It is easy to work with but as for the Crochet Pattern - you would need some attention and patience when working.

When you try to crochet from the t-shirt yarn, any project, you will fall in love with it immediately!
This T-shirt yarn is called Macaroni or Spaghetti yarn also, it is produced from recycled cotton. When used in crocheting – it creates sturdy, durable items. This yarn you may use for bags, storage baskets, decorative carpets etc.

The pattern uses Super Bulky yarn (250g=125 m), I used 6.5 mm crochet hook still the recommended size for this yarn is 9-10 mm hook, but for the bags and baskets I also take smaller hooks. This pattern has 6 pages with photos and explanations. First, you crochet the flip, then - the bag compartment itself. The flip of this Boho bag is tricky a bit - there are rows where you work FLO or BLO sts (into front or back loops) of the previous rows. Should you need any assistance with the pattern - write me immediately and I would gladly help you.

Level: Intermediate.

Sizes: 10” width, 9” height. The handle I have used - a faux leather detachable one. You may crochet the handle, weave it or use the one like mine. When I have completed the bag, I put a lining into it - I can also help you with this step, if you need support ever.
