Crochet bag from a T-shirt with your own hands

And now another version of the T-shirt bag. With such a bag, even to the beach, even to the market!

If you are not bad at crocheting, then you will like this alteration option. By the way, for those who do not know how to crochet, but really want to learn, there is a useful cheat sheet:

Cut your old t-shirts into long strips of the same width and pull them up to make a neat bun. From the resulting "threads" start knitting. Tie the two halves of the bag and the bottom. Sew the pieces together or tie them together.

Handles for such a bag can be made from braided braids from the same knitted cords, or you can use a different material (handles from an old bag, leather lace or belt).

How to sew a do-it-yourself lace-up backpack: a step-by-step master class with a photo

Step 1: Attach the hot-melt tape to a piece of felt cloth. Print out the letter you want to be printed on your backpack bag and attach it to the hot-melt tape. Cut out a letter from felt.

Step 2: Take two prepared pieces of fabric for a bag-bag or cut from a larger piece of material (dimensions 30x35).

Step 3: Remove a sheet of paper from the felt letter and glue it with an iron on the front side of one of the pieces of fabric.

Step 4: After you have gone over the letter with an iron, carefully sew it with a contrasting thread. Make the stitches long, but neat, because the letter on the backpack-bag will attract attention in the first place.

Step 5: Smooth out the front side of the future backpack on three sides about a centimeter from the edge, and leave the fourth side unfinished. Sweep the three smoothed sides.

Step 6: Do the same with the inside of the backpack - that is, with the second piece of fabric that you set aside for sewing a backpack-bag.

Step 7: On both pieces of fabric, indent from the unsmoothed edge by 6-7 centimeters and mark it with a pen. Bend literally 1 centimeter first, and then stretch the remaining 5 to attach to the mark.

Step 8: Sweep the edge (1 cm) and sew exactly along the marked line to get a "loophole" for the lace of your future backpack-bag.

Step 9: Do the same with the second piece of fabric. A string will slide along the “tunnel” and tighten the backpack-bag for the child.

Step 10: Now fold the pieces of fabric right sides inward, lining up the top edge where the string will go, and secure with a safety pin. Sew the sides of the bag, making a small seam - starting from one end of the drawstring eyelet and ending under the second.

Step 11: Turn the backpack inside out and iron it. You just have to pull the drawstring into the backpack-bag, which will tighten it!

Step 12: With a pin hooked onto one of the laces, thread the entire lace, starting from the right side of the fabric with the letter on the right side. When you are done, both ends of the lace should remain on the right side - that is, the lace comes out already from the second part of the backpack, but also on the right side.

Step 13: So, both ends of the lace hang on the right side of the backpack. Line them up and tie them in a knot at the bottom.

Step 14: Repeat step 12 with the second lace, but starting on the other side. Both ends of the lace should now remain on the left side. You are almost done sewing your DIY backpack bag!

Step 15: Turn the backpack inside out again and move a couple of stitches at the bottom of the backpack, at the corners. Pass the tied ends of the lace between the stitches and bring them out at the corners of the same side on which they hung.

Step 16: Sew the "break in" diagonally a few times to keep the knots in place.

Step 17: Turn the backpack inside out again, this time right side out, and spread the laces around the sides so that they are taut. Backpack bag is ready!

Now the child will be happy to carry his own toys, food, uniforms or shoes in a new backpack, because you made such a wonderful do-it-yourself backpack bag especially for him. Yes, and you will enjoy it. And who knows, you might finally be able to afford to carry a smaller bag so you don't carry tons of baby food and clothes around with you.

Everyone in the house has an old T-shirt that has not yet been thrown away. Perhaps you loved this T-shirt very much, or your hands just don’t reach to clear the closet of unnecessary things. Now you have the opportunity to give the T-shirt a second life. I'll show you how to quickly and easily make a bag out of a T-shirt.

For this you will need:

t-shirt;
scissors;
needle and thread (or sewing machine);
plate (optional)
lace and pin (optional).

Progress

The shirt must be turned inside out. Sew the bottom of the shirt. My sewing machine refused to sew at the most inopportune moment. But as you know, "hunting is worse than bondage", and I decided to stitch it manually.

To make the bottom of the bag neat, I sewed the corners like this.

So that the corners do not teleport, I sewed them to the bottom of the bag.

Turning out the T-shirt. Lay out on the table. You will need to decorate the top of the bag. An ordinary plate will help us with this. You can, of course, do without it, and draw a semicircle by eye and cut it out.

Next, cut off the sleeves, forming the handles of the bag. For this, I used a plate instead of a pattern.

That's basically it. You managed to make a bag out of a T-shirt with your own hands! Everything is simple and very fast!

You can do without sewing. But for this we additionally need a lace and a pin. For the design of the handles, we do the same as in the first version.

And the bottom is a little different. Turn the shirt inside out and lay it on the table. Use scissors to make a small hole in the hem of the T-shirt.

Fasten a pin to the lace and thread into the hem.

Then pull the string tight. So that there is no hole, you can still tie a T-shirt.

Get a bag from an old T-shirt without sewing.
