Special stitch
Shell (1-2-1 hdc): hdc in the 1st ch, ch 2, hdc in the 2nd ch.
1. Wrong Side Rows (Rounds 2, 4, 6): Work half double crochet (hdc) stitches by inserting the hook into the 3rd hidden loop at the front, just under the front loop. This technique creates beautiful ridges and extra stability.
2. Right Side Rows (Rows 3, 5): Work into the back loop only (BLO). This adds flexibility while keeping the shape firm. These alternating rows create a textured and sturdy base perfect for carrying your everyday essentials.
3. No Joining: Work in a continuous spiral — there’s no need to join with a slip stitch or chain at the beginning of each round. Just keep going as if you’re working one long spiral.
4. Unique Single Crochet: Instead of traditional sc, you’ll insert the hook through the legs of the indicated stitch (also called “split single crochet” or “waistcoat stitch”) to get a firmer texture.
This technique gives the bag a clean and polished look while keeping the fabric dense and durable.
Round 1: ch 2 (ch2 is counted as a hdc), hdc in the 4th ch from hook and in the next 17 chs, shell 2 in mc, turn sideways and continue along other side of the foundation ch, hdc in remaining loop of each of next 18 chs, shell 2 in the last ch, join with sl st in top of turning ch2.
Round 2: turn, ch 2, (shell, hdc 2, shell)*, hdc 20, repeat * 1 time, hdc 19, join with sl st in top of turning ch2.
Round 3: turn, ch 2, dc 20, (shell, hdc 4, shell)*, hdc 22, repeat * 1 time, hdc, join with sl st in top of turning ch2.
Round 4: turn, ch 2, hdc 2, (shell, hdc 6, shell)*, hdc 24, repeat * 1 time, hdc 21, join with sl st in top of turning ch2.
Round 5: turn, ch 2, dc 22, (shell, hdc 8, shell)*, hdc 26, repeat * 1 time, hdc 3, join with sl st in top of turning ch2.
Round 6: ch 1, sc in the same st of ch, (skip 1 st, 2 sc in 1 st)*, repeat * to the end of round.
Notes
1. Work the single crochet as usual, but around 4 yarns as shown in the following photos.
2. Follow the following tutorial to join the last st to the first one to look as a continued chain without interruption.
Round 2: ch 1, sc in each st to end of round, join with sl st in the 1st sc.
How to work the last round
How to join the last stitch to the first one
Cut the yarn, leaving a tail. Pull the yarn tail all the way through the last stitch to fasten off.
Insert your hook into the first stitch of the last round, under both the front and back loops (as shown in the photo), and pull the yarn tail through.
Then insert your hook into the back loop only of the last stitch (as shown in the photo), and pull the yarn tail through again.
This creates a seamless finish, making the last round appear continuous and smooth.
Then, cut the yarn tail and weave it through the stitches on the inside (or back) of your work to hide it and secure the end. This will give your project a clean and professional finish.

The body of the bag is created seamlessly:3. No Joining: Work in a continuous spiral — there’s no need to join with a slip stitch or chain at the beginning of each round. Just keep going as if you’re working one long spiral.
4. Unique Single Crochet: Instead of traditional sc, you’ll insert the hook through the legs of the indicated stitch (also called “split single crochet” or “waistcoat stitch”) to get a firmer texture.
