Crochet cosmetic bag

From decorating a flower pot there were knitted circles that haunted me. So the cosmetic bag was crocheted - from unnecessary motifs and acrylic yarn of a specific color and dubious quality.

This is what happened (photos are clickable and enlarged):

Crochet cosmetic bag. How to tie

The circles are knitted according to this pattern, the more turns, the larger the cosmetic bag:

We tie the circles with single crochets, connecting them together, as in the photo:

The connected circles are tied in rows of double crochet stitches; at the junction of the circles (hollows) we skip one loop to make the fabric even. This should be done until the depressions are completely smoothed out. On the extreme circles, increases are made in the same way as we would add new turns of stitches.

Below each photo is a step-by-step description of knitting a cosmetic bag:

How the side panel is made: a row of single crochets is knitted above the fabric.

The photo shows how the hook grabs the loop on the wrong side of the single crochets.

Pull the thread into the loop.

Catch the next loop on the wrong side, pull it through. You get half-columns.

Knitting a side panel
We knit a row of single crochets into half-columns, this creates a side panel, without stitching.

Crochet oval pattern

The back of the cosmetic bag is knitted in the same way as the face, using an oval pattern. We connect in any way - sew or crochet. You can sew in a zipper, but I don’t run the machine too much (I’m generally afraid to sew), so I sew it in by hand. Linings are also not my thing… I justify myself by saying that I want the cosmetic bag to be dimensionless, but the lining will not give this.

I take this cosmetic bag on vacation, on the road. Eye-catching))). Comfortable, roomy, cute. In the end, this is just an idea, a basis for your creative experiments.
