1️⃣ Crochet the strap using the crab stitch

Well walk through making the bag strap with a crab stitch, or reverse single crochet. This little stitch spins the yarn toward the front, giving the strap a twisty look that’s also super strong. Here’s how to begin: * Tie your yarn to the spot where you want the strap to grow. * Chain one stitch to lift up. * Instead of moving forward, poke your hook backward into each stitch, pulling a loop and finishing just like a regular single crochet. * Keep stitching in this backward motion until the strap is about 110 centimeters long. Feel free to stop sooner or keep going if you want a longer or shorter carry.

2️⃣ Leave a long yarn tail for sewing

When you reach the right length, dont snip the yarn too close. Leave a tail that measures at least twenty to thirty centimeters, maybe a bit more. That extra strand will save you headaches later because it gives you plenty of thread to stitch the strap onto the body of the bag.

3️⃣ Sew the strap to the bag

Read to attach the strap? Set one end flat against the side of the bag, watching for any twist. Grab a yarn needle, thread the long tail you saved, and begin to sew. Go back and forth through both layers a few times; the extra passes help lock the strap in place so it can carry all your goodies.

Do the same thing to the other end of the strap on the other side of the bag.

4️⃣ Check the strength and finish

When both ends are stitched down, give the strap a light pull to see that it holds tight. Trim and tuck any loose threads so your bag looks neat and ready to use.
