🧵 Step 1: Creating the Base (1:30 – 4:00)
On Camera: Close-up of hands crocheting.
Instructions:
- Start with a chain of 25 stitches (adjust for desired width).
- Single crochet (SC) across the chain.
- When you reach the end, add 2 stitches to the last loop and continue SC on the opposite side to form an oval base.
- Continue crocheting in rounds until the base is about 3–4 inches wide.
Tip to Show On-Screen Text:
“Crochet in the round for a seamless handbag base.”
🍂 Step 2: Building the Body (4:00 – 8:00)
Instructions:
- For the next round, single crochet in the back loops only to help the sides curve up.
- Continue crocheting in the round using half double crochet (HDC) stitches.
- Change colors if you’d like to create striped patterns (use warm tones like caramel or deep red).
- Work until the bag reaches your desired height (typically 8–10 inches).
Voiceover Tip:
“Crocheting in the back loops only gives your handbag structure and helps it stand upright.”

👜 Step 3: Adding Handles (8:00 – 10:00)
Option 1: Crocheted Handles
- Chain 60 stitches for each handle.
- Attach each end with slip stitches to the bag edge.
Option 2: Leather Handles
- Sew on with yarn or waxed thread using a yarn needle.
On-screen Tip:
“Measure handle placement before attaching to keep the bag symmetrical.”
🌾 Step 4: Adding Lining and Closure (Optional) (10:00 – 12:00)
Instructions:
- Cut fabric to fit the inside of your bag.
- Sew the edges with a simple straight stitch.
- Hand-stitch the lining to the inside rim.
- Attach a magnetic clasp or wooden button for closure.
Voiceover Example:
“Adding a lining gives your crochet handbag a professional finish and helps it hold its shape better.”

🍁 Step 5: Finishing Touches (12:00 – 13:00)
- Weave in all loose ends using the yarn needle.
- Steam block or shape the bag if needed.
- Add decorative elements (e.g., tassels, leaf-shaped appliqués, or a crochet flower).
✨ Final Reveal & Styling (13:00 – 14:00)

🎬 Editing & Production Tips
- Lighting: Warm, natural light or soft amber lighting to match the autumn aesthetic.
- Background Music: Soft acoustic or lo-fi instrumental with fall tones.
- Camera Angles: Alternate between close-up shots of the crochet process and wider shots showing progress.
- Captions: Include stitch names and timestamps for easy navigation.
- Color Palette: Use cozy fall colors in graphics — burnt orange, mustard yellow, beige, and deep green.
Would you like me to write a script with timestamps and camera directions (for example, a YouTube-style narration + shot list)?
That would make it easier to record or edit your actual video.
