Get your hook ready for some crochet origami! In this fun and very approachable pattern, three simple squares come together to form a sturdy tote bag.

There’s zero seaming, very few ends to weave in and plenty of portable potential in this quick, surprisingly-roomy bag.

You’ll practice the skills of working in the round, slip stitching and working basic increases and decreases. This bag is perfect for an advanced beginner looking to level learn some new tips and tricks.

While this pattern calls for a worsted-weight (category 4) mercerized cotton, any sturdy yarn can be substituted. If you choose a yarn of a different weight, you can easily modify the bag size by making smaller or larger squares.

This ad-free, printable PDF includes large-type written instructions and a detailed photo tutorial. Photos are separate from written pattern so you can choose to print them or conserve ink.
