This flower granny square bag from August Craft & Crochet is a great weekend project if you want a practical accessory with a vintage feel. The bag is made by joining floral squares to create an 11 x 8-inch cross-body shape. Using cream, pink, and green yarn gives it a classic “garden” look, but the design is sturdy enough for daily use.
You’ll need a 3.00 mm hook and 4-ply cotton to keep the stitches tight and the bag from stretching too much. The tutorial walks you through making the individual squares, joining them together, and adding a strap to finish it off. It’s an elegant, simple way to practice your granny square skills while making something you can actually wear.
