Materials Needed:

Yarn of your choice (use a crochet hook smaller than recommended for tighter stitches)
Crochet hook (size 4 was used in the tutorial)
Scissor
Needle (for sewing the ends)
Button

Pattern Instructions:

Starting the Bag:

Foundation Chain: Make 30 chains.

Ensure the chain's length matches your project's dimensions; for this project, it should be around 6 inches when laid flat, equivalent to 60 chains in length in the tutorial context.

Adding an Extra Chain: After the 30 chains, add one more chain to start the first row.

First Row: Start in the second chain from the hook and alternate between one single crochet and one double crochet. The pattern throughout will be single, double, single, double, and so on.

Finish the row with a double crochet.

Creating the Pattern:

Next Rows: At the beginning of each new row, chain one. Continue with the alternating single and double crochet pattern directly above the corresponding stitches from the previous row. This creates a textured pattern.

Repeat this step, creating rows to your desired length (the tutorial suggests 9 inches as an optimal length).

Edging and Finishing Touches:

Edging: Once you reach the desired length, chain one, then work a single crochet around the entire perimeter of the bag, adding two single crochets in each corner to maintain a flat edge.

Creating a Buttonhole:

When you reach a corner suitable for creating a buttonhole (opposite side to where you plan to sew the button), after completing 14 single crochets (or as close to the mid-point as possible), chain 4 (adjust the number of chains based on the size of your button), skip 1 stitch, then continue with the single crochet around.

Completing the Edging: Continue with single crochet until you reach the end of the round; slip stitch to the first single crochet to join.

Sewing and Finishing:

Sewing Sides: Fasten off the yarn and prepare the piece for sewing by folding it such that the sides align to form the bag. Sew the sides together neatly.
Attaching the Bottom: If the design requires, sew the bottom part closed to secure the bag's shape, ensuring it's flat and even.
Sewing the Button: Choose the position for your button on the front of the bag, opposite the buttonhole, and securely sew it in place.
