Crochet Two Squares:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start with a <strong>slip knot<\/strong> and a <strong>foundation chain<\/strong> (e.g., 30\u201340 chains depending on desired bag size).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work rows of your chosen stitch (like single or double crochet) back and forth to create a square.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tip: Count your rows to ensure the square is symmetrical (same number of rows and stitches).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make two identical squares.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/diycrochets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/How-to-Crochet-a-Bag-Two-Squares-Crochet-Bag-683x1024-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3178\" style=\"width:735px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/diycrochets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/How-to-Crochet-a-Bag-Two-Squares-Crochet-Bag-683x1024-1.jpg 683w, https:\/\/diycrochets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/How-to-Crochet-a-Bag-Two-Squares-Crochet-Bag-683x1024-1-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Join the Squares:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Place the squares on top of each other with the \u201cright sides\u201d (the nice-looking sides) facing out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use a yarn needle or single crochet stitch to <strong>sew or crochet three sides together<\/strong>, leaving the top open.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can add a border around the top edge if you want a neater finish.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Add a Strap:<\/strong><br>You have two options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Crochet a strap<\/strong>: Make a long chain, then single crochet across to make it thicker. Sew the ends to the inside top corners of the bag.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use a pre-made strap<\/strong>: Attach it using D-rings or sew it directly on with sturdy stitching.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2705 <strong>Finishing Touches:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Weave in all yarn ends with a yarn needle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can line the bag with fabric (optional, but good for durability).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add buttons, a drawstring, or decorations if desired.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion:<\/strong><br>Creating a two-squares crochet bag is a simple and rewarding project. With just a few basic stitches and techniques, you can make a cute, handmade accessory perfect for everyday use.
