Miriam’s Granny Square Crochet Bag
Granny Square Crochet Bag Pattern - Easy and quick pattern to make
This granny square bag pattern is one of the easiest and quickest patterns I have made recently. Best thing about granny square patterns is that, most of them are beginner friendly and they will always be in trend. Also you can use any leftover yarn and mix as many colors as you want and the project will still turn out looking great.
Crochet granny square bags are great as market or shopping bags as you can use to carry your groceries, carry or store yarn or projects, carry towels to the beach or anything you wish. They are eco-friendly, which helps in cutting down on plastic bags.
Yarn
For this granny stitch crochet bag, I used Lily Cream n' Sugar in combination with Mainstays. Both yarns are 100% cotton.
I used 5 different colors but you can use less or more colors as you wish. Just make sure the number of rows is the same as this granny bag if you are going for the same size.
You can use any weight 4 yarn of 100% cotton or cotton blend yarn.
