how to crochet a heart bag & keychain with wings | pattern + video tutorial


Hi everyone, today starts the beginning of my valentine's day pattern/tutorial collection! We're starting with a cute accessory to wear with your outfits - a heart-shaped bag* and an adorable little key chain.

Before following the pattern, I highly recommend watching the video tutorial. If you're confused at any point on how to follow the pattern, I explain with demonstrations in that tutorial!

Abbreviations used:
ch - chain / sc - single crochet / ss - slip stitch / hdc - half double crochet / dc - double crochet

Pattern explanations:
If the number comes before the stitch name - insert that number into the same stitch. Eg. 2 hdc means that you have to insert 2 hdc into the same stitch.
If the number comes after the stitch name - insert that stitch into the next 'number' stitches. Eg. 1 sc x 3 means that you have to insert 1 sc into the next 3 stitches.
More examples - 
2 dc x 2 means that you have to insert 2 dc (into the same stitch) for the next 2 stitches.
1 hdc x 6 means that you have to insert 1 hdc into the next 6 stitches.

Please note: if you're confused during any of the steps, you can refer to my youtube tutorial here.

Part 1 - Heart pieces for the bag (end each round by slip stitching into the 1st stitch of the round, start each round by inserting the first stitch of that round into the same stitch where you slip stitched / total stitch counts for each round is included in the bracket)

Round 1 (23):

Start with a slipknot, ch 8, 1 dc into 3rd ch from your hook, 1 dc, 3 dc x 2, 1 dc, 4 dc, *now work on the other side of the ch*, in the same stitch as the previous 4 dc - insert 3 dc (total 7 dc in that ch), dc 4 together, 6 dc, ss into the first stitch of the round (do this to end EVERY round)

Round 7 (89): 

1 hdc x 13, 2 dc x 2, 1 hdc x 13, *2 hdc, 1 hdc x 4* x 4, 2 sc, 1 sc x 2, sc 4 together, 1 sc x 2, 2 sc, *1 hdc x 4, 2 hdc* x 4, 1 hdc x 2

Round 8 (100):

1 hdc x 15, 3 dc, 1 hdc x 16, *2 hdc, 1 hdc x 5* x 4, 2 sc, 1 sc x 2, sc 2 together, 1 sc x 2, 2 sc, *1 hdc x 5, 2 hdc* x 4, 1 hdc

Round 9 (111):

1 hdc x 16, 2 dc x 2, 1 hdc x 17, *2 hdc, 1 hdc x 6* x 4, 2 sc, 1 sc x 2, sc 2 together, 1 sc x 2, 2 sc, *1 hdc x 6, 2 hdc* x 4, 1 hdc

Round 10 (122):

Round 12 (144):

1 hdc x 21, 3 dc, 1 hdc x 22, *2 hdc, 1 hdc x 9* x 4, 2 sc, 1 sc x 2, sc 2 together, 1 sc x 2, 2 sc, *1 hdc x 9, 2 hdc* x 4, 1 hdc

If you want to do more than 12 rounds to make it bigger:

End the rounds the same way then insert 1 hdc in each stitch around the heart. This will not affect the shape of your heart since you'll already have a base of rounds that give it the heart shape.

Part 2: Strap pieces

For this step, the width and length are completely up to you! You can also use any stitch (I recommend using sc or hdc since dc would be looser and stretchier). If you want a thicker/wider strap, do more chains at the beginning. If you want a longer strap, do more rows. 

Part 3: Heart keychain

To crochet the heart piece, I followed this class on Skillshare - How to Crochet a Heart by Breanna Presley. Since the pattern belongs to that creator, I can't share it for free here. But because my recent YouTube video is sponsored by Skillshare, you can access the class to make the keychain using the 1-month free membership here (as well as a lot of other classes too!).

Right side (the wing starts from the bottom up) - Attach yarn onto the bottom side of the heart, ch 4, sc into the 2nd ch from your hook, 1 hdc x 2, ss into the side of the heart, ch 5, sc into the 2nd ch from your hook, 1 hdc x 3, ss into the side of the heart, ch 6, sc into the 2nd ch from your hook, 1 hdc x 4, ss into the side of the heart, fasten off.

Left side (the wing starts from the top down)Attach yarn onto the top side of the heart, ch 6, sc into the 2nd ch from your hook, 1 hdc x 4, ss into the side of the heart, ch 5, sc into the 2nd ch from your hook, 1 hdc x 3, ss into the side of the heart, ch 4, sc into the 2nd ch from your hook, 1 hdc x 2, ss into the side of the heart, fasten off.

*Disclaimer: This heart-shaped bag is based solely on my heart cushion tutorial and follows the same pattern for rounds 1-12.
