Ami Project Bag

“Ami” is the Japanese word for “crochet”, so it’s certainly fitting that this crochet project bag design is derived from a Japanese knot bag. The unique closure of the Ami Project Bag creates a slight opening at the top when the long handle threads through the smaller handle. The long handle can then be held on the left wrist, creating a hands-free solution for the busy crocheter who wants to crochet on the go. The project bag makes a wonderfully thoughtful gift for any crocheter, especially you!

Stitches used: Chain, slip stitch, single crochet, half double crochet

Yarn: Any worsted weight cotton with little to no stretch

Construction: Bottom is worked as a square with body worked in rounds. Straps are started along one side and attached with a whip stitch to the opposite side of the bag. The only seaming is attaching the loose ends of the straps to the top of the bag.
