The Barley Seed Bag is an open crochet summer bag pattern with easy stitches and a nice, almost shell-like shape.

It’s quite small in size but durable and perfect to hold all your essentials. Its final size is about 14.5” x 10.5” (37 x 16 cm), but it might stretch more if you use non-cotton yarn. I do recommend cotton yarn, though, because it can hold weight better.

It has small holes, and I didn’t add any lining, zippers, or buttons for closure. You just place it over your shoulder and go.

To make this item, you should be familiar with basic crochet stitches and how to read a crochet pattern. Directions are written so that they are easy to read and follow. The pattern is rated as an Advanced Beginner. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
