Yarn recommendation (advertisement not commissioned, not sponsored)
With 4-ply sock yarn, you crochet double-stranded!

• Sock yarn, e.g., from SUPERGARNE Aktiv 4-ply UNI,
  75% Wool, 25% Manufactured Fibers - Nylon / Polyamide, Superwash
  Photo examples of sock yarn: Col.: 25-48 Aubergine or Aktiv 4-ply DIAMOND UNI,
  Col.: 320-23 Gold in 100 g (3.53oz.) skeins, each with a length of approx. 420 m (459yds.),
  Weight: Light Fingering

• Usage: approx. 247 g (8.7oz.) (i.e. you need 4 skeins of 100 g each or 3 skeins. In this case, half of the third skein must be unwound. I still recommend using 4 skeins, as the straps are individually designed and can increase consumption).
  With 8-ply sock yarn you crochet single-stranded!

• Yarn cakes
  For example, with the “Sock Rock Bobbles” from MegaBobbel.
  This set includes 2 x 500 m of a solid color, as well as a color bobble with 300 m LL (+ a little extra)
  Since you're crocheting double-stranded, a mottled effect is created in the center of the bag.

• Hooks: 3.5 - 4.5 & 5

  Additional accessories:
  Scissor | Darning needle for sewing the threads | Stitch markers

  Bag accessories:
• Snap hook approx. 5 cm long, with a flat eyelet approx. 2.5 cm wide, into which a closure strap can be hooked.
• Metal ring Ø 3 cm

Recommendation: there are great accessories in the “key rings” section. Snap hooks and rings are usually available together in many great shapes and metal colors at low prices, or you may even already have them at home. For this design, the karabiner should also have a wide eyelet so that the closure strap can be worked in. Optional changes are possible.
