Definition

A crochet bag combines a firm base, a fabric structure chosen for its stretch behaviour, a lining, and reinforced handle attachments.

Overview

Fibre choice is structural: cotton, linen, jute and raffia hold shape, while wool and acrylic sag under load.

Every bag we make is lined and every handle tab is hand-stitched through the lining, because attachment points are where bags fail.

Characteristics

  • Firm base
  • Inelastic fibres
  • Lined interior
  • Reinforced handles

Typical uses

  • Everyday totes
  • Market and beach bags
  • Evening clutches
  • Gift bags

Questions

Will a crochet bag stretch out of shape?

Not when it is made in an inelastic fibre with a lining and reinforced handles — the three things that prevent sag.
