🍁 Materials Needed (0:45 – 1:30)

Show items on screen:

  • Chunky cotton or wool-blend yarn (in warm fall colors like rust, mustard, or olive)
  • Crochet hook (size 5 mm–6 mm)
  • Scissors
  • Yarn needle
  • Stitch markers

“Here’s what you’ll need. I’m using a chunky cotton-blend yarn in burnt orange and a 5.5 mm crochet hook. You can use any yarn that feels soft but sturdy enough to hold shape.”


🧵 Step 1: Creating the Base (1:30 – 4:00)

On Camera: Close-up of hands crocheting.

Instructions:

  1. Start with a chain of 25 stitches (adjust for desired width).
  2. Single crochet (SC) across the chain.
  3. When you reach the end, add 2 stitches to the last loop and continue SC on the opposite side to form an oval base.
  4. 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:

  1. For the next round, single crochet in the back loops only to help the sides curve up.
  2. Continue crocheting in the round using half double crochet (HDC) stitches.
  3. Change colors if you’d like to create striped patterns (use warm tones like caramel or deep red).
  4. 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:

  1. Cut fabric to fit the inside of your bag.
  2. Sew the edges with a simple straight stitch.
  3. Hand-stitch the lining to the inside rim.
  4. 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)

Show Finished Bag:
Display it with autumn outfits — sweaters, boots, scarves, or pumpkins in the background.

Script Example:

🎬 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.
