This pretty beach bag is crocheted using the tapestry technique with criss-cross stitches. This technique is explained in detail in the pattern, but you should already have some crochet experience so you don’t get confused.  There’s a charted pattern you can follow for the design. It does require a bit of concentration, but that means the project never gets boring—and in the end, you’ll be rewarded with a beautiful beach bag!

Knitting Pattern for a Large Shawl



For this shawl, I used a soft yarn containing 50% alpaca (e.g., Schachenmayr “Highland Alpaca Fino,” 50% alpaca, 50% virgin wool, with a yardage of 250 m / 50 g). This really brings out the pattern.

You should know how to knit and purl stitches, make yarn overs, and knit stitches together.

Combination of double stitch and tapestry technique:
With this special stitch (double stitch), it is possible to crochet in rounds without a jog—making it especially well suited for the tapestry technique. Beautiful, straight-running patterns can be worked in.
