Version 1: Not Perfect, But Still My Favorite

 

I’ve been wanting to make a round bag forever. So I finally did it.

 

This is prototype #1. Crocheted with braided yarn from Catcraft — my holy grail brand. I picked it to test if it would be sturdy enough for a round shape, and it passed. The structure holds. The stitches have that chunky spiral that I’m obsessed with.

 

Is it flawless? Not yet 😅 There are a few wobbly parts. It’s missing accessories. I’m already planning to frog it and redo it to make it even sturdier and cleaner. But I love it.

 

This is the bag that proved I could do it. The one that taught me what to fix for version 2. And honestly? The imperfections make it feel more mine.

 

Details:

  • Yarn: Braided yarn from Catcraft
  • Hardware: Gold chain strap
  • Color: Classic black — goes with everything
  • Status: Prototype. Taking notes for v2

 

If you’d wear a handmade bag with character, this one’s for you.
