Crochet Dumpling Bag Pattern
My Crochet Dumpling Bag Pattern is the perfect way to accessorize if you are a passionate foodie that loves dumplings. The crochet dumpling bag is big enough to hold a few things like your phone and wallet.
Materials
- 1 Size 5 chunky yarn in white
- 1 Light pink yarn for cheeks
- 1 Black yarn for mouth
- 12mm Safety eyes
- Tapestry needle
- 7mm hook
- 5mm crochet hook
Abbreviations (US terms)
- mr = Magic ring
- ch = Chain
- sc = Single crochet
Notes
Use chunky yarn for the bag; worsted weight for smaller or super chunky for a larger bag. Any yarn type works. Sized for a phone and small items, not a large purse. For a firmer dumpling purse, go down in hook size or line the bag. To achieve a soup-like dumpling with a frilly top, continue making rounds after the last round.
Instructions
Dumpling Bag:
- For this pattern we will be working in rounds.
- Round 1: Using white chunky yarn and the 7mm hook, make a mr and then sc x6 into the mr. (6)
- Round 2: Inc in every sc. (12)
- Round 3: Inc, sc, then repeat until end of round (18)
- Round 4: Inc, sc x2, then repeat until end of round (24)
- Round 5: Inc, sc x3, then repeat until end of round (30)
- Round 6: Inc, sc x4, then repeat until end of round (36)
- Round 7: Inc, sc x5, then repeat until end of round (42)
- Round 8: Inc, sc x6, then repeat until end of round (48)
- Round 9: Inc, sc x7, then repeat until end of round (54)
- Round 10-26: Sc in every stitch (54)
- Round 27: Ch x2 + skip 2 stitches, then sc into the following stitch. Repeat for the rest of the round and slip stitch to the beginning of the round. Fasten off the yarn.
Drawstring:
- Row 1: Using the yarn and the 5mm hook, ch x170-200 (depending on the length you want)
- Weave the drawstring in between the holes made at the top of the bag. Once that is done, sew the drawstring ends together so it becomes one loop.
Cheeks:
- Round 1: Using white light pink yarn and the 5mm hook, make a mr and then sc x6 into the mr. (6) Fasten off, but leave a long tail for sewing.
Finishing:
- Attach the safety eyes where you would like the face to be.
- Then sew on the cheeks and embroider the mouth.
- Weave in any loose ends.
- Then if needed make a lining for the bag (optional).
- And tah-dah! Your crochet dumpling bag is completed!
