Essentials you’ll need:
1. Big Crochet Flower Bag
Let’s start with a bag that practically begs for compliments! This pattern from Mama in a Stitch joins eight giant granny squares and then uses a 10 mm hook with bulky yarn, so that it can grow fast. Also, add a canvas tote lining to keep the shape firm so your keys and water bottle stay put.
For this design, you can pick mustard and sage, or else choose any colors your closet already loves!
2. Crochet Tote Purse
Here’s a granny-style handbag with puffy squares that look like little blossoms. Use this tutorial from Crochet 365 Knit Too to create the base and pair it with leather handles to keep the bag in shape. Also, worsted yarn and a 4 mm hook make it beginner-friendly!
Denim blue feels right for autumn. Otherwise, go with rust or olive!
3. Crochet Bow Bag
Ribbons are everywhere this season, and now they have landed on your handbag! Use this Yarnspiration pattern to crochet the body in rounds with off-white One Pound yarn. Do note that the bow and ties are crocheted on their own and then assembled into a big bow.
It measures about 9½” wide and 7¾” tall. That’s roomy enough for a phone, a wallet, and a lip balm.
4. Posh Handbag
Want a handbag that looks like a boutique find? Lovecrafts designed this free beginner pattern using chunky Zpagetti t-shirt yarn. Because the yarn is so thick, the stitches sit tight, and the handbag holds its shape. Plus, a flower accent adds that finishing touch.
5. Checkered Shoulder Bag
Checks are still winning, and this one is a snap! It’s crocheted with half double crochet in two colors, and a free video tutorial from Viv Crochets guides you through each color change. Even better, you can skip the second color if you would rather have a solid bag.
Soft blue and white will give a fresh summer feel. That said, black and cream would look sharp, too!
6. Crochet Crossbody Bag
Simple can still look polished, and HanJan Crochet’s bag pattern proves it. You hold worsted yarn double and work the whole piece in rounds, which gives a thick, textured fabric. Plus, you can change the bag height and strap width, so it fits you just right. Finally, a button closure keeps your things safe.
Brown is a classic here. Try mushroom or camel for a warm, neutral look!
7. Textured Shoulder Bag
Just look at this adorable bag pattern from Viv Crochets that is perfect for advanced beginners. This time, the stitch does all the talking. The bean stitch builds bumpy ridges. In addition, the assembly is simple, so you won’t fight with a long list of seams.
Lilac gives it a soft pastel pop. For a bolder look, use a deep jewel tone instead!

8. T-Shirt Yarn Baguette Bag
Up next is a sleek baguette shape that comes with a video tutorial from Crochet Daniela. It is crocheted with two strands of T-shirt yarn held together. Therefore, the fabric turns out dense and structured, and the curved strap slips right onto your shoulder. Do check out these DIY bag ideas for similar patterns.
9. Cool Shoulder Bag
Butter yellow is the color of the season, and this bag wears it well, right? This Ravelry pattern uses t-shirt yarn or tube yarn, and it comes together in just a few hours. Moreover, using thick yarn means you get to stitch less, so you won’t get bored halfway through.
Grab a 10 or 12 mm hook and a big ball of yarn to begin with!
10. Strawberry Mini Bag
How adorable is this little pouch pattern from A Crafty Concept? Tiny strawberries dot the cream background, and a scalloped edge finishes the flap. You can also adjust the length of the straps to convert it into a shoulder or sling bag.
Make sure you stick with cream for the base. Then add small red and green accents for the berries!
11. Heart Crossbody Bag
A heart-shaped bag is a guaranteed conversation starter! The deep burgundy shade will look good with any outfit, while the slim strap sits snugly across your body. Because the bag is small, it also makes a quick gift for a friend who loves cute accessories. Do crochet this for them!
12. Mini Top-Handle Bag
At the end, we have this pattern from Pinterest, a chocolate-brown mini with a short top handle and a long braided strap. You can carry it by hand for dinner, or else sling it across your chest for a day of errands. Likewise, you can create adorable bag charms to add a cute finishing detail!
