Taking the Heat: Cool Knit and Crochet Hot Pads with Free Patterns!

When we were very first learning how to knit and crochet, there were a few kinds of projects and patterns that we enjoyed making the most. The first thing we ever made was a dish cloth, but those are quite small and we found we started finishing them too quickly once we got the hang of things. At the same time, we really did need simple projects to practice with while we were still perfecting our techniques. That’s where hot pads came in to save the day! We couldn’t even begin to count the number of hot pads we knit and crocheted in our first year as yarn crafters.

Are you looking for ways to practice your knitting and crochet techniques but still make something useful and rewarding at the same time? Then check out these awesome and totally cool looking hot pad patterns that you’ll either love having in your own kitchen or enjoy giving to friends and family as gifts!

1. Morning glory hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you feeling confident enough in your crochet skills that you think you’re ready to move on from creating basic shapes, so you’ve had your eye on layered crochet patterns for quite some time now? In that case, we definitely think you should check out this adorable morning glory hot pad design from Annie Potter. No matter what colours you make your little flowers, the finished look will be nothing short of lovely.

2. Covered beer cap hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are the hot pads that you always find the most useful and tend to gravitate towards always the ones made from harder materials or the ones that have a little more substance to them? Well, that might not seem like it goes with your desire to create yarn crafts, but you’d be surprised! Dawn L.E. Riden is here to show you how to make a solid hot pad out of beer caps, but also how to cover the caps in adorably crocheted lacy little sleeves to keep the things you put on top of them from sliding around on the metal, as well as to keep the metal from heating up too much and burning you if you touch it by accident. We can’t get over how creative this idea really is, especially since it’s also an upcycling technique!

3. Easter duckie hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

Perhaps you’ve always been a huge fan of making seasonal crafts and pieces, so you’ve had your eyes peeled for holiday designs of any kind the whole time you’ve been scrolling through this post? In that case, we have a feeling you’re going to enjoy this adorable little Easter pattern hat looks like a baby duck just poking out from it’s shell. We think this pattern is a great way to learn about switching colours! See how it’s made on Dragon Fly Mom of 2.

4. Simple variegated hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you really just a brand new knitter looking for ways to practice your basic stitches and finish something tangible that you can actually use? Then we suggest sticking to a simple, classic square design! That doesn’t mean, however, that you can’t create some visual interest in your design too. We love the way Cheryl Beckerich kept their stitches to a basic minimalist style but used a brightly variegated yarn to keep things looking awesome.

5. Geometrix mandala hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

Okay, we know we said that most of these patterns and designs were aimed towards people who are still new at knitting and crochet but when we saw how utterly beautiful this mandala pattern from Tatsiana Kupryianchyk was, we just couldn’t resist putting it on our list! This pattern is great practice in lace crochet and intricate shaping, especially while changing from colour to colour.

6. Hot pad mini mitts

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you the kind of knitter and the kind of kitchen person who, while interested in making something simple that’s designed along a basic concept, would actually rather use something that’s just ever so slightly different than the norm? In that case, we think you’re going to love this funny little hot pad mitt from Bekah Knits. It’s a cool two-fold project because it’ll protect your fingers when you pick up your hot pan or pot but then you can also unfold it and lay it flat on the counter top to set things on.

7. Music note hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

Have you reached the point in your craft where you feel like you’re ready to learn a bit of colour work, but you’d like to find a balance between making something themed after things you like and sticking to pretty basic shapes since you’re still learning? In that case, we think this music not hot pad from Susan Bridget is a great idea! We like that the overall shape is still straight forward so you can just concentrate on creating your shapes.

8. Mitered hot pads

VIEW IN GALLERY

Maybe you’re ready for a little bit of a challenge, but your personal style is simply a little bit more minimalist than some of what we’ve shown you so far? In that case, we think you’d enjoy a project that concentrates more on stitch definition than fancy shapes or designs! We love the way Lori Utely designed this knit and purl hot pad that really just shows off your neat, even tension and the beauty of stockinette.

9. Tequila sunrise hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you still thinking about how much you loved the more intricate lacy crocheted hot pad we showed you above, and you’re kind of interested in making one similar that also has a colour change, but you’d rather not crochet an entirely solid background because you feel like it detracts from the beauty of the lace? Then check out this see through dual colour lace design instead! Robin Abudllah shows you each and every stitch so you can make your own version.

10. Sugar skull hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

One again, we know this isn’t exactly a beginner’s design, but it’s so darn cool that we just couldn’t help ourselves! Besides the awesome use of colours, we can’t get over how this lace crochet design looks so much like an awesome sugar skull. Find out how each layer is made and each texture is stitched on Glamour4You.

11. Topical fish hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

Maybe you’re looking for a design that will let you practice both colour changes and increases and decreases for shape altering all at once, without overwhelming you with additional details? Then we have a feeling you’ll appreciate this funny little fish hot pad from Katie Roseman. This pattern is also great because it’s another one that’ll look very cool no matter what colours you choose for your base and stripes.

12. Sheep’s butt hot pad

VIEW IN GALLERY

If you’re going to make something useful but simple, why not make it extra fun? We love the idea of learning new techniques by making something extra kitschy and silly that will probably give visitors a giggle when they see it. That’s why we loved this sheep’s butt hot pad pattern from Shannon Paxton so much! It’s a great way to practice neatly switching colours, but it’s also just plain hilarious.

13. Outlined rainbow flower hot pads

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you actually quite experience in colour switching and now you’d like to really take those skills to the next level, even though you still actually need a hot pad for your kitchen? Then you’ll probably fall just as much in love with these awesome technicolour flower pads by Jennifer Martin as we did! We’ve actually made ourselves several of these awesome blossoms, and countless more that we’ve given away to friends and family.

Homemade Headgear: Crocheted Messy Bun Hat Patterns

We’ve seen all kinds of patterns through the last few years of messy bun hats made by knitting them, but what if you’re actually more of a crochet enthusiast? Well, luckily for all of us, there are actually all kinds of options for crocheted ponytail and messy bun hats! We’ve been collecting all kinds of crochet designs lately so we have all kinds of different options when we want to crochet this kind of hat for family and friends.

1. Simple messy bun beanie

VIEW IN GALLERY

If you’re going to style your hair into an awesome bun sticking out the top of your hat, you don’t necessarily need a lot of fancy stitch work and construction when it comes to the hat itself! That’s why we liked this simple beanie design from DZ Crochet Creations that has some fun texture that doesn’t detract from your impressive bun.

2. Town beanie messy bun hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Perhaps some kind of awesome style or construction is exactly what you’d like in your crocheted messy bun hat, so you’ve been holding out for a more distinctive or vintage looking design to try? Well, if you’ve ever enjoyed a hat with a stylish brim, then we’d definitely suggest taking a look at this cute pattern from Pattern Paradise that even features a fold with a button.

3. Puff bun hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Just in case texture is really your thing, here’s another option that’s full of awesome stitched in detailing and shape! We love the way Elifine Designs used varied stitches on alternative rows to make a fantastic hat that has a lot of visual interest, especially once you’ve added a couple buttons on the edge.

4. Bun hat with a flower

VIEW IN GALLERY

Maybe, rather than just crocheting some visual appeal right into the hat, you’d rather add some actual embellishments once the whole hat is finished? In that case, we think you’ll really appreciate the way Daisy Cottage Designs balanced the height of their hair bun with an awesome layered crocheted flower!

5. Fast & Simple messy bun hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Is it actually a little bit warmer during the fall where you lived? Well, that’s nice because it opens you to the world of making and wearing slightly more mesh textured hats without getting too cold! We really appreciate this pattern from Knit Kreations because it’s definitely got some stitch interest but it’s simple enough that it’s also very quick to make.

6. Crochet Cables hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

We know that most things made with cables are actually knitted and not crocheted, but it’s a design element we love so much that we simply had to find a pattern that will show you how to do it with your hook instead! Thanks to A Crocheted Simplicity, we’ve found precisely what we were looking for, meaning we can make the ideal messy bun hat for a more classic yarn wear look.

7. Owner and puppy ponytail hats

VIEW IN GALLERY

If you can make a warm fall hat that involves a hole for your bun or ponytail to poke through then it’s not too much of a stretch to imagine that you can also make a hat with holes for, say, little ears, right? Well, that’s exactly what Briana K Designs thought too, which is why they made this fantastic pattern that has instructions for adult, child, and puppy dog ponytail hats!

8. Long stitch messy bun hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Have you always been more fond of the crocheted stitches that have a bit more of their own shape in each stitch, rather than just the ones that give a bit of subtle texture? In that case, we have a feeling you’ll get along very well indeed with this awesome long stitch ponytail hat featured on Mango Tree Crafts!

9. Meshy messy bun hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Did we really catch your attention when we started talking about mesh style messy bun hats but the pattern we showed you before isn’t actually quite as meshy as you thought it would be? In that case, we’d definitely suggest taking a look at how Lilly-Oma Designs made this particular design instead!

10. Seashore messy bun hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Just in case we caught your attention well when we started talking about hats that showcase a particular stitch but the long stitch isn’t really grabbing you, here’s an awesome alternative! Simply Collectible guides you step by step through the process of creating a lovely seashore inspired messy bun hat made entirely of shell stitch except for the brim.

11. Colour work ponytail hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Have you actually always loved colour work in yarn wear, particularly when it comes to crocheted patterns because it’s a bit easier than knitting and a whole lot of fun? In that case, we’d definitely suggest taking a look at how Alena Design made this adorable messy bun hat that alternates its colour pattern in triplicate all the way from rim to crown!

12. Ribbed and buttoned bun hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Have you actually been hoping to find a messy bun hat pattern that’s a little more delicate looking than some of what you’ve seen so far? Then we think perhaps you’d get along a little better using a thinner yarn, and we’d absolutely encourage you to take a look at how Naztazia made this fantastic folded ribbing hat, complete with an accent button!

13. Arielle chunky bun hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Maybe you’re actually looking for the opposite thing to what we just mentioned when it comes to the weight of your yarn? Then we have a feeling this wonderfully chunky ponytail hat outlined step by step on Meadowvale Studio will be a little more up your alley! They show you how to make it happen with bulky yarn instead of the thing kind you see above.

14. Aliz messy bun hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Have you always loved hats that have a bit of a swirl to them because you love the way the stitches spiral upwards in those kinds of constructions? In that case, we’d absolutely suggest taking a look at how Maki Crochet made this fantastic messy bun hat that features stylish ridges with diagonal decorative stitches in between. We love their colour change as well!

15. Harlequin slouch ponytail hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Have you actually been scrolling through our list hoping to come across a hat that, despite having a messy bun hole, is a little closer to a slouch hat in its style? Well, particularly if you love texture and raised patterning as much as we do, we’d definitely encourage you to take a look at how Crochet by Jennifer made this fantastic piece.

Cozy and Stylish 15 Crocheted Ear Warmer and Headband Patterns

Every fall, we see all kinds of fantastic new knitted headband and ear warmer patterns sweep all the usual knitting sites and, even though we can knit, we always wonder whether there are options out there for those of us who prefer crochet! That’s how we found ourselves scouring the Internet for equally impressive designs to the ones we’re used to seeing outlined for knitting needles, but this time design for our hook!

Just in case you’re as interest in the idea of of making crocheted headbands and ear warms this fall as we were, if not more, here are 15 of the cutest and most unique crochet patterns we’ve come across so far.

1. Faux knit crocheted headband

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you actually the kind of crochet enthusiast who never learned how to knit as well because you were so in love with crocheting from the moment you picked up your first hook, even though you really like the way knit stitches look? In that case, we have a feeling you’ll really love the way Maria’s Blue Crayon outlines this headband that looks like a faux knitted piece!

2.  Ribbed cinched ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

We adore making ribbed crocheted pieces when it comes to headwear because they have fantastic stretch, meaning they’re always comfortable. Just because we love something quite plain and classic, however, doesn’t mean you can’t add some kind of unique element to top the piece off! We love the way Little Monkeys Crochet cinched their ear warmer in the centre for a little extra style.

3. Textured crochet ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Have you always been a fan of the way that crochet lets you create all kinds of unique texture and you’d love to make something with bars that’s not just regular ribbing? In that case, we think this awesome textured ear warmer featured stitch by stitch on Crafts Unleashed might be right up your alley!

4. Love is cold ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Part of the reason we adore crocheting is because we love how simple changing colours and doing colour work within projects is! That’s why we adore this dual coloured idea from Moogly for crocheting adorable little hearts in the centre of a headband in a contrasting colour pair that really makes the hearts pop.

5. Cozy cabled crochet

VIEW IN GALLERY

Cabling might be a technique that’s classically done in knitting rather than crochet but that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways out there for you to make the effect you love so much appear in a crocheted ear warmer! This fantastic pattern from Little Monkeys Designs is the perfect example of what we mean.

6. Crocheted bow ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you quite interested indeed in the idea of a crocheted ear warmer that cinches in the middle like the one we showed you earlier but you’ve realized that you really mostly liked it because it looked a little bit like a bow? In that case, we think you might actually get along a little better with this design from Antika Moda that is actually design to look like a bow on purpose!

7. Criss Cross crochet ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Just in case you’re still thinking about how much you love crochet textures of all different kinds but you’re still on the hunt for one that catches your attention a little better, since you’ve always preferred more geometric patterns over swooping cables, here’s an idea that we think might appeal to you a little more! Check out how Crochet N’ Crafts made a boxy criss-crossing stitch.

8. Braided glam cable ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you actually quite experienced indeed at not only crochet but also the stitches and techniques involve in making crochet cables? Well, particularly if you’re looking for a headband that’s a little different than usual, we think you might just be the perfect person to give this fantastically glam, buttoning head wrap style warmer a try! Get the full details on Glamour 4 You.

9. Oatmeal cookie headband

VIEW IN GALLERY

We adore this wonderful design from The Stitchin’ Mommy for so many reasons! Besides the triple colour changes and the fact that there are three different stitch types, giving you lots of awesome texture, we can’t get over how much we love the way they stitched their bow on at a jaunty angle.

10. Herringbone ear warmer with a button

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you quite interested in these designs that let you create all kinds of wonderful texture in the main part of your headband? Perhaps your favourite ear warmer style is simply the buttoning kind so you don’t have to pull it down and mess up your hair. Either way, we think you’ll get a real kick out of this fastening herringbone pattern featured on Little Monkeys Crochet.

11. Quick Twist ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Have the cinched ideas we’ve shown you so far on our list been some of your favourite styles so far but you’re just not sure any of the techniques you’ve seen in previous ideas have quite grabbed your attention enough to decide you entirely? In that case, we’d absolutely suggest taking a look at how Crochet Dreamz put a simple twist in the front of their band to add some personality!

12. Puff Stitch ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you actually from a place that stays quite warm in the fall so you have no problem with the idea of wearing a meshy ear warmer, since the holes in the pattern won’t leave you too cold? In that case, we’d suggest taking a look at how Hopeful Honey made this fantastic pattern that’s design to look like a bubble stitch all the way around!

13. Angelina ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Here’s a slightly thicker ear warmer design from Crochet Dreamz that’s a little more store-bought looking thanks to the neat combination of the stitches and the perfect placement of the buttons. This is one of those few yarn wear patterns than even a trained eye will have to look at twice to determine whether it’s knitted or crocheted and we love pieces like that because they generate conversation with other yarn crafting enthusiasts!

14. Lacy Shells ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are you actually a very experienced crochet lover indeed and you’ve been scrolling through our list hoping to find something that might be a little more challenging for you so you can create something truly stunning? In that case, we think you’ll have a lot of appreciation for the way Alli Crafts made this beautiful lacy shell stitch ear warmer complete with its own delicate flower stitched into the intricate band.

15. Vines ear warmer

VIEW IN GALLERY

Can you tell by now that we’re totally obsessed with cables? Well, just in case you are too, here’s another design that showcases a beautiful cable right now the centre, framed wonderfully on either side by neat edging! We love that this particular design from Interweave looks good no matter how you place it on your head or where you let the button sit.

Ultra-Cute Fashion Statement: 15 Novelty Crocheted Fall Hats for Kids

Usually when we pick up our crochet hook, we’re preparing to make something beautiful and intricate. Every once in a while, however, we’d rather use that hook’s power and our skills to make something a little more silly and amusing than usual! That’s why we adore crocheting kids’ hats; the patterns are so full of novelty and character that fall time usually yields a plethora of silly little hats in our house.

Just in case you love the idea of crocheting some novelty or themed hats for the kids around you this fall just as much as we do, if not more, here are 15 of the cutest looking patterns we’ve bookmarked so far this autumn.

1. Little Bunny hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Bunnies might be more of a spring design and a fall one but, when it comes to the things our kids life, we don’t usually ask questions or apply seasonal rules. That’s why we’ve made several of these little bunny hats for the kids in our lives, no matter the time of year! Check out how wonderfully simple this little hat and its floppy ears really are to make on Make and Do Crew.

2. Newborn Teddy Bear hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Perhaps you or someone you know is expecting a brand new arrival this fall and you’d like to make sure they have something nice and toasty but also adorable to come home from the hospital in, keeping them comfortable despite the chill? Well, if adorable teddy bears have ever been something you enjoy, here’s a fantastic design from Hopeful Honey complete with the cutest ears we ever did see.

3. Magical Unicorn hood

VIEW IN GALLERY

Are your little kids just as obsessed with unicorns as ours have been for the past few years, always asking you for unicorn themed things whenever you offer to make them something? Then we have a feeling you’re going to get along very well indeed with this adorable unicorn hood featured step by step on Mama in A Stitch. We love this design because it’s a little more classic and vintage looking than other unicorn themed toques we’ve seen online or crocheted in the past.

4. Crochet Fox hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

We know we’ve included quite a number of animal themed hats on our list so far, but they’re just so adorable that we positively can’t resist! This cute little fox hat, complete with ears and hanging ties, is the perfect example of what we mean. The Stitchin’ Mommy shows you how to crochet the main shape of the hat, as well as how to embellish it with the little fox’s features.

5. Crochet Lamb hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

If you’re going to make a cute crocheted animal hat, would you prefer to make then kind that makes your child actually look like they are the baby animal, rather than making a hat with its own face? In that case, we’d absolutely suggest taking a look at how Repeat Crafter Me created this fantastic little lamb hat that makes Baby look like they have their own set of tiny white ears.

6. Funky Monster hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Just in case the things your kids love most have always been a little more colourful and unconventional than the average bunny or teddy bear, here’s a hilariously bright monster design for your consideration! Check out how Daisy Cottage Designs made their funny hat with three big eyes and some colourful monster horns.

7. Easy Crochet Giraffe hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Just in case you’re really loving the animal shaped hat ideas we’ve shown you but you just haven’t quite found the creature your kids love best yet, here’s another fun friend to make! We love the way Mama in A Stitch created a simple giraffe design complete with a happy stitched face, little ears, and horns, adding pom poms on the ends where a giraffe would have tufts of hair.

8. Baby Snowman hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

We know we said we’ve been looking primarily for fall hats, but there was just something about this adorable little snowman that caught our eye and our hearts! Besides, just because snowmen are more of a winter thing doesn’t mean you can’t crochet this design in the fall, right? Get the full details for making one of your own on Make and Do Crew.

9. Elephant hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

So far we’ve shown you rabbits, foxes, bunnies, and bears, but what if you’d rather turn your baby into a wild animal that’s a little more wild? Well, we love the ironic size difference between a tiny baby and a majestic beast, so you can probably imagine how much we adored this little crocheted elephant hat! Get the full stitching pattern on Jenny and Teddy.

10. Ladybug hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Have you actually been scrolling through our list and thinking about how one of your child’s favourite animals isn’t actually an animal indeed but, rather, a bug? Then maybe you’d get along a little better with something like this adorable lady bug hat featured step by step on Repeat Crafter Me! We can’t get over how cute the spots and antennae are.

11. Bernat Racoon hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

In the interest of making sure you get all kinds of adorable animal options, here’s another idea that’s so darling we could hardly contain ourselves! Check out how Yarnspirations created a racoon hat in surprisingly few simple steps, making sure to get that signature stripe around the eyes, just like the real thing.

12. Flowery Owl hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Were you quite taken with the colours and style of the monster hat we showed you earlier on our list but you’re also kind of convinced that your kids, who are huge animal lovers, would still prefer a hat that looks like some kind of real life creature? In that case, we’d absolutely suggest taking a look at how Daisy Cottage Designs made this brightly coloured, big eyed owl toque featuring adorable ear tufts and a little flower on one side, if you’re feeling girly.

13. Funny Frog hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Just in case you loved the structure and fit of the newborn teddy bear but you’ve already made several teddy bears this year, here’s another design that’s similar but lets you turn Baby into another animal entirely! Check out how Posh Patterns made their top circles into big eyes instead of big ears in order to make funny little frog hat.

14. Spring Chick hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

Just like the bunny design we showed you earlier, we understand that little chicks are definitely more of a spring thing than a fall or winter one, but kids don’t care about that! If it’s crocheted and it’ll keep the kids warm, it’s fair game all year round, in our opinion. See how this cute spring chick with the little yarn ear feathers was made on Daisy Cottage Designs.

15. Pom Pom Party hat

VIEW IN GALLERY

What if you’ve actually been scrolling through our list hoping to find a design that’s a little less animal based and simply a lot of fun to wear? Then maybe this adorably silly pom pom hat idea outlined stitch by stitch on Make and Do Crew would be a little more up your alley! This is another example of the kind of design we were talking about earlier where the hat will look like a lot of fun no matter what colours you choose, so don’t be afraid to experiment.

15 Super Useful Crochet Tote Bag Patterns

There are few things we love more than when something very useful starts trending and becomes fashionable as well. This is especially true when it’s something we know how to make rather than buying! That way we get some DIY satisfaction out of it whenever we use it, plus we look stylish at the same time. This is exactly how we feel about the recent obsession with adorable tote bags that has resulted from businesses trying to discourage the widespread use of plastic bags!

Our absolute favorite way to make a good DIY tote bag is to crochet it. If you’d like to do that too, check out these awesome and rather easy crocheted tote bag patterns that will have you carrying things in style all year round!

1. Sicily bag by DROPS Design

VIEW IN GALLERYSicily bag

When you think of crocheted bags, does your mind automatically picture bright colours and a bag packed with beach supplies during the summer? We don’t blame you- the first bag we ever crocheted went to the beach with us for years! Check out this design that lets you get colourful in the striping pattern and have fun with some flowers along the top.

2. Market tote by Very Berry Handmade

VIEW IN GALLERYMarket tote

Perhaps you’re looking for a big that’s a little bigger and very strong so you can carry your groceries back and forth nice and easily? Then this design might be the one for you! Thick straps make it easy for carrying but the decorative stitch in the body of the bag keeps it cute (and is a lot easier to do than it looks).

3. Colourful stripes bag by Attic24

VIEW IN GALLERYColourful stripes bag

Did you like the idea of colourful stripes when we talked about it above but you’d rather get even brighter with yours? Then check out this super striped bag design instead! These stripes are the biggest feature of the design to the point that they even go up the handles. We love the way the designer embellished the bag with little flowers at the top, but it would still look cute if you decided to stick to just stripes too!

4. Felted bag with crocheted lace handles by By Number

VIEW IN GALLERYFelted bag with crocheted lace handles

Are you the kind of diverse crafter who absolutely loves combining your different skills and techniques whenever you can? Then here’s an amazing, useful, and trendy way to marry your crochet and felting skills! Felt yourself a simple pouch in a basic bag design and try your hand at crochet lace by making these gorgeous handles in any colour!

5. Masa bag by Artemis Adornments

VIEW IN GALLERYMasa bag

Are you an avid sewing enthusiast who also likes to crochet? Then perhaps you’d like to try the challenge of crocheting yourself strips or pieces of brightly coloured striping and sewing them together in a unique overlapped shape! We love the way this one wraps around itself almost like a beach sarong.

6. Crochet “hobo” bag with a ribbon by Shorty Lam Crochet

VIEW IN GALLERYCrochet

Have you ever seen old movies featuring runaways who pack an old crocheted sack with all of their belongings? Well, this is the same idea, but classed up a little bit to make things especially cute! This designer suggests not only crocheting a cute eyelet pattern, but also stringing a ribbon around the top in a big bow and beading the surface in matching seed beads. Contrasting coloured beads would be adorable as well!

7. Granny stripe boutique bag by Tangled Happy

VIEW IN GALLERYGranny stripe boutique bag

When we were young, our grandmothers had adorable little crocheted purses that they’d carry right in the crook of their elbows and pull sweets and candies from. That’s exactly what this adorable little handbag design is paying homage to! We love the addition of a pretty flower that’s simple but looks incredibly fun.

8. Chunky button bag by Vegan Craftastic

VIEW IN GALLERYChunky button bag

Do crocheted things always remind you of cozy cardigans? Well, instead of avoiding them because of that, embrace the cardigan aesthetic entirely and add some big, bright buttons to your bag! We love the way this designer affixed them to the base of each strap as thought the handles are buttoned on, even though they’re crocheted more firmly underneath to avoid dropping all of your things.

9. Catan tote by Craftster

VIEW IN GALLERYCatan tote

Have you always enjoyed making “granny squares” in all different colours and crocheting them together to make all kinds of shapes and projects? We love those too! That’s why we’re particularly fond of this tote made from hexagonal patches that remind us of honeycombs.

10. English Fantasy Flower bag by Crafty Valley

VIEW IN GALLERYEnglish Fantasy Flower bag

Maybe you like the granny square idea but you can’t decide between that and your other favourite technique, crocheting flowers? Well, this designer has found the perfect way for you to do both at once and still make yourself an awesome tote bag! We’re in love with how bright and cheerful this design is, but it would be pretty in calmer tones too if neutrals are more your style.

11. Flower Burst handbag by Chocolate Mints in a Jar

VIEW IN GALLERYFlower burst handbag

Maybe you like a bit of floral pattern but you’re still learning, so you’d prefer a design that still stays quite simple across most of the bag? Then try one that teaches you to crochet a simple floral cutout pattern like this bag has right across the middle! It’s the perfect size and shape for carrying books to and from the library or school, or magazines to and from the beach!

12. Ombre basket pattern by Crochet in Color

VIEW IN GALLERYOmbre basket pattern

Perhaps you love the basket tote shape and design from above but you’re more interested in colours rather than cut out designs? Then check out how this pattern uses stripes in a subtle ombre to create an interesting colour face all the way down from handles to base! No matter what colours you use, it’ll be surprisingly lovely looking in the end for how simple its construction is.

13. Crochet seed stitch purse by My Merry Messy Life

VIEW IN GALLERYCrochet seed stitch purse

Have you always been a big fan of learning new stitches and stitching patterns by jumping right into a project that uses them over and over, rather than just trying them in a little group and then moving on? Then this awesomely stripes tote bag is the perfect way for you to learn crocheted seed stitch! We adore that even the handles are striped in contrasting colours for maximum fun.

14. Simple Shoulder bag by Dew Drops Designs

VIEW IN GALLERYSimple Shoulder bag

Are your favourite bags and purses the kind that have a strap to carry over your shoulder and a hand strap, just in case you’re carrying something very heavy and get tired in one position? Then it’s a good thing you’re custom making your own totes and can add whatever you like! This design shows you not only how to crochet a simple sack, but also how to double the straps in different lengths for maximum carrying power.

15. Granny Goes Shopping tote by Rainbow Bunting

VIEW IN GALLERYGranny Goes Shopping bag

Remember when we were talking about granny squares and how great they are, but then we only really showed you a variation on them rather than the classic design? Well, we couldn’t bear to leave you hanging, so here’s an adorable granny squared bag in a bigger size, complete with cute pom pom tassels for ultra crocheted style!

Beautiful Crochet Summer Tote Bag, With Free Pattern

There are three words here you need to be aware of – limited time only! That’s right, the folks over at Outstanding Crochet have been generous enough to share this breathtaking crochet summer tote bag pattern with us, though remain adamant it won’t be free of charge for long. And given how much you’d have to pay for one of these babies in a designer store, you might want to check out and download the guide now before it’s too late!

The very essence of summer, it’s hard to believe that this fabulously flowery tote bag is in fact a homemade DIY craft project. Understandably, it may be a little too advanced for first-timers and you’ll need to know your way around a crochet hook to pull it off.

For those with existing experience however, it’s actually a deceptively simple pattern that produces results far superior than the required efforts would have you believe.

Crochet Summer Tote Bags Are Cool

VIEW IN GALLERYcrochet tote bag handlers VIEW IN GALLERYtote bag handlers VIEW IN GALLERYcrochet tote bag - tutorialThese stunning tote bags simply ooze sophistication and elegance. A timeless design that’s just as fashion forward today as it was many generations ago, it’s hardly surprising these things sell for big-bucks in designer stores. As such, it’s nothing short of a miracle that both the guide and pattern are being offered free of charge – it’s a limited-time offer you really must make sure you don’t miss out on.

This classic beige finish is timeless and universally desirable to say the least. However, we’d also highly recommend experimenting with any other colors of your choice in order to produce something truly unique. Stick with a single block color or choose a different color for each flower you crochet – whichever way you go you’ll find it hard to believe it’s your own work before your eyes.
