Check it out on Instagram! #LOLABAG

A playful take on the classic granny square – reimagined as a bold, round statement bag. The #LOLABAG is worked in two identical panels using simple double crochet clusters, making it a fun and beginner-friendly project.

Perfect for stash-busting and color play, this bag is your canvas to go wild with leftover yarns. Whether you go full rainbow or stick to a curated palette, every #LOLABAG is one of a kind.

Crocheted in chunky ribbon or tshirt yarn with an 8 (12) mm hook, and finished with a sturdy handle, it’s just the right mix of fun, practical and totally handmade.
