Step-by-Step Pattern
1. Foundation & Base
- Make a slip knot and place it on your hook.
- Ch 23 (Chain 23) – or more for larger phones.
- Row 1:
- Skip 1 chain from hook, sc in 2nd chain from hook.
- Sc in each chain across (you'll have 22 sc).
- Turn around the foundation row to work into the other side:
- Into the last chain (at the end of the row), work 5 sc (all into the same chain). This forms the rounded bottom.
- Continue working back up the unused side:
- Sc into each stitch across the other side (pick up the unused bumps).
- At the starting chain, make 4 sc into the end to match the opposite rounded edge.
- Join with a slip stitch to the first sc. You now have an oval base.
2. Single Crochet Rounds (Bag Height Base)
- Place a stitch marker at the last stitch for tracking rounds.
- Rounds 2–6:
- Sc in each stitch around (making 5 rounds in total after the base round).
- Ensure you have 50 single crochet stitches per round (or as many as needed for your size).
- Join each round with a slip stitch.
3. Main Bag Body (Crossed Double Crochet)
- Remove marker.
- Start Design Row:
- Ch 3 (counts as first dc), skip next st, dc in the following st, then dc into the skipped st (working behind the previous dc, making the "X" shape).
- Repeat sk1, dc next st, dc in skipped st behind around.
- This is called Cross Double Crochet (X-Stitch): Instructions:
- Skip a stitch, dc in the next.
- Go back and dc in the skipped stitch from behind, forming an X.
- Repeat until the round is complete. Slip stitch to the top of the starting ch 3.
- Next Round:
- Ch 1, sc in each stitch around. Slip stitch to join.
- Alternate one round of X-stitch, one round of sc.
- Repeat until you have 11 X-stitch (crossed double crochet) rounds and their corresponding sc rounds. (You will have 21 rounds here—adjust as needed for your phone size.)
- After the last X-stitch set, work one additional sc round at the top.
4. Finishing Edge
- Top Edge:
- Work 4 rounds of single crochet for a sturdy, neat edge.
- Fasten off and weave in loose ends.
5. Button Closure and Loop
Button Loop
- Find the center of the bag’s back edge/top edge.
- Attach yarn, and sc for 7 stitches at the bag’s center.
- Foundation chain: then ch 15 (or as many as needed for your button size).
- Attach the chain loop back into the body with a slip stitch; fasten off and weave in ends.
Optional Decorative Tassel
- Wrap yarn around 2–3 fingers 10 times.
- Cut the loops at one end.
- Tie at the center with a long piece of yarn.
- Use this yarn to sew to the point where loop is anchored on the bag for a fun accent.
Crochet Button
- Make a magic ring.
- Rnd 1: Work 15 sc into the ring. Pull tight and join with a slip stitch.
- Rnd 2: Working over Rnd 1, 15 sc again into the edge for a thicker button.
- Fasten off with a long tail, stuff if desired, then sew securely to the front of the bag, opposite the button loop.
6. Crochet Cord / Strap
- Attach yarn at the corner or side of the bag.
- Ch 200 (or more) for your desired strap length.
- Join to the opposite side with a slip stitch.
- (Optional): For a decorative cord, use the "looped cord":
- On each chain, make three half-double crochets in the same chain, yarn over and pull through all yarns at once, skip one chain, then slip stitch in the next.
- Repeat, making little chunky spiral/puffs along the length.
- Fasten off, weave in ends.
Tip
Use stitch markers! Place them at the start of rounds and at intervals if you tend to lose your place. This helps keep your stitch count steady, resulting in a neat, professional-looking bag.
Conclusion
Congratulations—your stylish crochet mobile bag is done! Not only is it practical for daily use, but it’s a wonderful way to practice new stitches and show off your skills. Experiment with colors, buttons, and strap length to match your style.
