Stages of video tutorial (with English subtitles):
✩ how many loops should you work on a pattern creating, how to crochet the basic pattern 3 DC-clusters, how to reduce the loops on the flap of the backpack;
✩ how to crochet perfect sides and sew them to the basis;
✩ how to make spirals;
✩ how to install a clasp, ends and swivel eye snap hooks. And how to thread yarn into the chain as well;
✩ how to sew a lining with a rectangular bottom by hand and sew it to the backpack;
You will need these things for the backpack:
- 3 skeins (100 m in each one) of T-shirt yarn (7-9 mm), or 300 meters ribbon rope 4-5 mm
If you crochet with T-shirt yarn, your backpack will be big. If you crochet with Ribbon yarn, it will be small.
- 150 cm of thick chain (For example, the width of the link in such a chain can be 2.6 cm * 1.5 cm.) or 2 shoulder straps of eco-leather or genuine leather (Each one must be 75 cm.);
- strings of eco-leather or genuine leather for the backpack (They are not necessary, because the strings can be made of the thread manually. I am showing how to make them in the video.);
- a tuck lock;
- 3 D-rings (25 mm) or 3 round snap hooks;
- a piece of cloth 60 cm * 60 cm for the lining;
- two crochet hooks (8 mm one and 6 mm one for T-shirt yarn or 7 mm one and 5 mm one for a cotton cord Ribbon Glitter);
- scissors, some thread of the same color as the yarn, needle-nose pliers, a small screwdriver, a measuring tape, a ruler, a needle for sewing the details together and some markers for crocheting.
Please note, this listing is for the PATTERN only and not the finished product.
