Crochet Crossbody Bag Free Pattern: A Lovely Project

This crossbody bag is so pretty and perfect for beginners too. Crossbody bags have been so popular recently. Indeed, these bags (especially those featuring granny squares) have really made a come back of late.

A few years ago, I crocheted The Sweet Sixteen Bag which is also a crossbody bag. This crochet bag also features a granny square design. The Suzette Boho Bag is a great project for beginners, and it is also a lovely example of a crossbody bag.

I love crocheted crossbody bags, as they are so practical and pretty too. Also, these bags can be made with your favorite yarn, such as cotton or wool. These different yarns will give a different vibe that is suitable for different seasons (such as Winter or Summer, for example).

Once these squares are crocheted, they will be stitched together to create the bag shape. Then a simple edging will be added to the top of the project, before the strap is sewed onto the bag with a darning needle and thread.
