Crochet Cosmetic Bag

The Puff Stitch Bag has been my best-selling pattern and best-selling market item for over a year. Not only does it have a beautiful and interesting stitch pattern, the technique of making the last round into your zippered lining makes it look more polished and professional.

For an Ad-free, printable pdf pattern, you can find it in my Etsy shop Dayscrochetnc at https://www.etsy.com/listing/69242523...

There are SO MANY ways you can change this pattern up to make other looks! I have several other tutorials that show you how to embellish your bag, as well as how to change the look entirely with a simple switch of zipper direction. In addition to watching this tutorial, you will also need to watch the following tutorials to complete your bag (I use the zippered lining on my Bobble Bag tutorial as well):
To make your zippered lining, see:    • Bobble Bag Part 2-A: Adding a Zippere...   and    • Bobble Bag Part 2-B_ Adding a Zippere...  
To make your beaded tassel, see:    • Bobble Bag Part 2-C_ Adding Your Bead...  
To turn your Puff Stitch Bag into the Boho Box Bag, see:    • The Boho Box Bag  
To add other embellishments to your Puff Stitch Bag, see:    • Accessorizing Your Crochet Bag  
To add a beaded strap to your Puff Stitch Bag, see:    • Adding a Beaded Strap to your Crochet...  

Supplies Needed:
-Approximately 150-200 yards of your choice of yarn (I usually use size 4 ww and size 5 bulky weight yarns). For this tutorial, I use Caron Pantone X in the color Moody Pumpkins Find it on Amazon using my affiliate link here: https://amzn.to/34zRbG2

-Suggested hook size on yarn packaging (I use a J 6.0 mm hook)
-Sizes F 3.75 mm and H 5.0 mm hooks for brim rounds
-A matching fat quarter of fabric, or a piece of fabric that is at least 10” x 10” (25 x 25 cm). You can find fat quarters for around $1 at Wal-mart. They are pieces of fabric pre-cut to a quarter of a yard.
-A matching 7” (18 cm) or 9” (23 cm) zipper
-Matching thread for sewing fabric liner
-Approximately 4’ of embroidery thread that matches your zipper color and a sharp ribbon needle (it looks like a yarn needle, only much sharper. It will be used to sew back stitches in the zipper going through the fabric and zipper lip. See photo below.)
-Sewing notions, such as: straight pins, sewing needle, and small hemming ruler (If you are using a sewing machine, you will need both a regular sewing foot and a zipper foot).
-Scissors, stitch marker, tape measure, yarn needle
-Embellishments of your choice, such as beads and tassels. If you follow my beaded tassel tutorial, I also use Monofilament Illusion cord from the bead section at my local craft store. It is for beading jewelry, and it does not stretch.
Finished Measurements:
You can make your bag to be any size you desire, but I tend to make mine 7” (18 cm) x 5” (13 cm).
