at the end of the round fast enough

here is the body of your bucket bag

to create the tassels you’re going to

get a credit card wrap your yarn around

the width of the card 50 times

cut the yarn and set your tassel to the

side

cut three strands of yarn that measure a

hundred and eighty centimeters long

holding the ends of all three strands

together through them underneath the

tassel pull on the yarn until the ends

of the strands meet

the middle of the strands should be

underneath the tassel

tie a double knot

slide the loop off the credit cat

using a spare piece of yarn tie it

around the tassel

tie a knot

using a darning needle weave in the ends

of the tie

cut the loop of the tehsil and trim the

ends

we’re now going to braid the cord

together

each portion of the braid will have two

strands

place something heavy on top of your

tassel I recommend a book or a laptop

and then braid the strands together try

to make the braid as tight as possible

you’re going to start when you have

about 15 centimeters or six inches left

over once you’ve finished braiding tie a

knot with the two outside strands

we’re now going to braid the cord

through the bag using the tail end of

the cord insert the cord into round 29

of the bag

skip 2 chain spaces and then pull the

cord up to the front of the bag

skip 2 chain spaces and then pull the

cord into the back of the bag

you’re going to repeat this process all

the way around the back

now we’re going to create the second

tassel wrap the yarn around the card 50

times

once you’ve finished cut the yarn and

insert the hook underneath the tehsil

grab one strand of the cord and pull

underneath the tassel

grab another strand of yarn and tie a

double knot at the top of the tassel

slide the loop off the card

cut a 20-centimeter spare piece of yarn

and wrap it around the tassel

tie a double knot

weave in the ends

cut the loop and trim the tassel

this is what the tasseled bag should

look like I’m clipping an old strap to

the size of my bag if you want your

entire bag to be made out of yarn you

could easily create another cord and sew

it to the sides of your bag

if you want your bucket bag to have more

structure you can cut out a plastic

circle with the same diameter as your

bag and drop it inside here is your

finished crochet bucket bag
