Easy little shoulder bag

Crochet pattern for little cross-body/ over-the-shoulder bag, ideal for summer days when you just need to take your phone and other small essentials with you.

This pattern is beginner friendly but requires you to know how to make a slip knot, single crochet and chain. It is written using US crochet terms.

You will need: 5 mm crochet hook, yarn needle, stitch marker, scissors, two buttons (approximately 30 mm diameter) and three different shades of double-knit weight yarn, 25 g of each colour (approximately 57 m each). You will be doing all the crocheting in one go, no sewing pieces together.

Each bag will be approximately 11 x 17 cm with a 122 cm strap.
