The cosmetic bag has long and permanently settled in the handbags of modern women, because makeup has to be corrected quite often during the day, and all cosmetics should be folded compactly and always be at hand. However, as a rule, all cosmetic bags are of the same type, and the size is not always suitable, because everyone has their own minimum cosmetics. If you want to learn how to crochet an original, bright and stylish cosmetic bag in just a couple of hours, welcome to our master class today!
For work we will need:
front embossed stitch: place the hook not under the loop, but under the double crochet of the previous row before knitting, that is, from the front side.
Row 1: use blue thread to cast on 40 stitches. p., starting from the 2nd loop from the hook, p. without n. in each loop, turn the work = 39 s. without n..
2nd row: 1st century. p., s. without n. in each loop to the end of the row. We do not turn the work, but continue to knit in the round: 1 s. without n. on one side of the previous row, 39 p. without n. on the other hand, 1 s. without n. side, ss. in the first column = 80 s. without n..
3-4 row: 2 in. p., s. s n. in each loop = 80 s. with n..
5th row: 2 in. p., *front relief column, p. without n.*, from * to * x 40 = 80 s..
6th row: 1 in. p., s. without n. in each loop = 80 s. without n..
7th row: 2 in. p., *s. without n., front relief column*, from * to * x 40 = 80 s..
8 row: 1 in. p., s. without n. in each loop = 80 s. without n..
Rows 9-12: using olive yarn, repeat rows 5-8.
Rows 13-16: repeat rows 5-8 with mustard yellow thread.
Rows 17-20: knit rows 5-8 with coral color.
21-24 row: we knit 5-8 rows with raspberry yarn.
25-26 row: 1 st. p., s. without n. to the end of the row = 80 s. without n..
Fasten and cut the thread.
When knitting the 26th row, attach the zipper using a needle and thread or tying it using a hook and s..
If desired, you can add knitted decorations in the form of flowers or hearts, or sew on decorative buttons.
For work we need:
The size of the finished product will be 26 x 14 cm.
Knitting density: 13 p. without n. x 14 rub. = 10 x 10 cm.
Important! When changing the color of the yarn, we knit the last two loops like this: we pull a thread of the next color through these two loops, and continue with a new thread. We connect each circular row using a ss..
Row 1: Using a thread of color A, cast on 33 stitches. p. and knit with. without n. in the round, in the outer loop we knit 3 s. and continue further along the second side = 65 s. without n..
2nd row: with the same yarn we knit 1 st. p., *1 p. without n. in each of the next 4 p.., knit 1 s with yarn of the main color. without n. in the next loop*, from * to *.
We sew in a zipper and the crocheted cosmetic bag is ready!
For work we need:
We dial 5 v. p., connect them into a circle.
We make additions: in each s. without n. knit 2 s. without n.. In new rows we evenly add 8 s. without n., to end up with 1 additional column for each section of the pattern.
We introduce yarn of a new color starting from the last s. without n. the previous row, that is, when knitting the last column, we perform the final loop with a thread of a different color. By connecting the threads in this way, we avoid disturbing the pattern.
We knit 2 more rows with crimson yarn without changing the color. After this, we proceed to knitting a strip of an additional pattern:
1st r. light green thread with without n..
2nd row: 1 s. without n. light green, 3 pp. without n. raspberry, 1 s. without n. light green, 3 pp. without n. orange thread, alternate until the end of the circle.
3rd row: light green s. without n..
We knit the last 2 rows with raspberry thread, not forgetting about 8 additional stitches.
We don’t cut the yarn, we move it inside out, one row lower.
In this way we will knit the fastener bar, which is perpendicular to the main knitting.
To knit a strip, insert a hook from the wrong side, grab the thread from the front side and pull it out, as shown in the photo below:
We immediately knit a loop without making a yarn over for the stitches.
Grab the thread again and pull it out.
The photo below shows 2 unknitted loops: the first is pulled out, and the second is taken from knitting.
We knit two rows in a spiral. In the second, we make the corners: in the places where the folds will be located, we knit 4 loops together.
We prepare the lining and scissors, and use them to cut out a piece that should be 2 cm wider on each side of the knitted cosmetic bag.
Carefully sew the zipper and lining to our knitted base. This is what it should look like from the inside out:
Turn the cosmetic bag inside out and the unusual knitted accessory is ready!
For work we need:
Using a hook, we collect a chain from c. p. approximately 14-15 cm long.
1-2 rows: p. without n., however, in the first and last loop we knit increases: 3 s each. without n. in the 1st and last stitch.
For 1-2 rubles. increase by 8 p., 4 for each row.
3rd row: in the first 3 stitches we knit 2 s each. without n. in each, then p. without n. to the last 3 p., where we again knit 2 s. without n. in each st. = add 6 sts.
4-5 rows: p. without n..
Row 6-7: we decrease from both ends: we knit two loops with one. Each row gives us 4 sts, for a total of 8 sts.
Row 8: p. without n..
Row 9: p. with n..
10 rows: p. without n..
11th row: knit 4 half-loops from every 2nd stitch and close with one broach. Between the fans we knit c. p..
For girls who have a lot of cosmetics and don’t know where else to put it, a knitted cosmetic bag is an ideal option. A crochet hook is much better suited for creating such products than knitting needles. By creating an accessory yourself, you can give it any shape, make the product of any size, and arrange it at your discretion. The main thing is to decide on the model of the cosmetics bag and do the job correctly.
A fashionable crocheted cosmetic bag will become functional only when the yarn and design are chosen correctly. The functionality of the product will also depend on the quality of the thread. If the yarn is too light, the cosmetic bag will not last long.
The material must meet several conditions:
Other preferences are determined by the characteristics of the type of future product and the desires of the needlewoman herself. Some craftsmen make their own threads from old oversized tights or garbage bags.
To ensure that the product meets all the user’s needs, it is better to make the cosmetic bag yourself. The easiest way is to knit the product. Usually, a crocheted cosmetic bag is finished and decorated with your own hands. Basic finishing involves the presence of the following elements:
If the cosmetics bag will be used only at home, you can attach legs to it or make a stand. When the accessory is used to carry cosmetics in a bag, then too complicated arrangement is not required.
Crocheting a round cosmetic bag is quite simple. At the same time, a product of this shape will become a real decoration of the toilet stand. The interesting shape and spaciousness make the product for storing cosmetics a favorite in comparison with other options. The only drawback is that this accessory is inconvenient to transport.
The principle of making a round cosmetic bag:
The principle of making an oval cosmetic bag is the same as a round one. But there is a difference in knitting patterns, which gives the product this shape.
The instructions for a crocheted cosmetic bag with an oval shape are quite simple if you first master the principle of creating a round analogue:
Then the walls and, if necessary, the lid are knitted. The principle of decoration is determined by the needlewoman herself.
The easiest option for making it yourself is a flat crocheted cosmetic bag (instructions for beginners are presented below). Moreover, the product has a rectangular or square shape, which simplifies the knitting pattern.
The sequence of actions will be as follows:
A cosmetic bag that has the shape of a travel bag and has the same functionality will look very impressive and original. A detailed and clear description of a crocheted cosmetic bag in the shape of a travel bag will help simplify your work and create a real masterpiece. To do this, you can use this option:
To make the product visually resemble a travel bag as much as possible, you can sew on handles from any type of material.
A crocheted cosmetic bag can be not only functional, but also beautiful. If the needlewoman has some experience in crocheting, then it is worth trying to create an openwork product. At the same time, you can make a fashionable form of a cosmetic bag. Recently, cosmetic bags in the form of bags have become a trend, which often replace clutches and are used as a mini-handbag.
Features of creating a cosmetic bag in several ways:
When you choose openwork patterns for a cosmetic bag, you must sew on a lining. The lining will prevent small items from falling out through the holes in the pattern.
A crocheted cosmetic bag will become truly beautiful if you elegantly decorate the finished product. For decoration you can use beads, sequins, fabric, leather, fur, buttons, metal rivets and other elements.
A beautiful applique is made from fabric. Using the same hook, flowers and other elements are crocheted. If you sew beads, sequins or beads in a random order, you will get a beautiful abstraction.
The principle of decoration depends on the characteristics of use and the imagination of the needlewoman.
Sewing any product yourself from ready-made fabric does not require much labor and time. Just a couple of patterns and a zipper - you have a finished bag, wallet or cosmetic bag. But to weave some cute feminine item yourself from knitting threads is a challenge for a handicraft master. Moreover, it is always nice to have both self-sewn and knitted items in your collection. If you have a little patience and apply a little diligence, you can occupy yourself with crocheting a cosmetic bag, with the diagram and description included in this article.
Before you start working on a knitted cosmetic bag, you must, of course, choose the materials and tools to create it.
To knit a cosmetic bag you will need:
It is worth considering that the knitting threads should be chosen of the same thickness so that the knitting on the cosmetic bag matches the width of the fabric over the entire surface.
The first stage of making the product involves crocheting a line-chain of 36 loops, one of which is used for lifting. To better display your future cosmetics bag, you need to study the following diagram in detail:
Around the resulting chain you need to knit another 13 rows in a circle. The next 9 rows must be knitted with a spread. If two colors of thread are used, then 5 of the indicated rows should be knitted in one color, and the remaining 4 in another.
It should be noted that knitting the fabric according to the pattern does not follow all the loops, because you need to get a weave that folds into a finished cosmetic bag.
To finish the product, you will need to knit 4 more rows to the loop for the future button fastener, knit the loop and fold the cosmetic bag to secure the edges by stitching (you can also knit to connect the elements of the fabric into the product). After sewing on the buttons, we decorate the cosmetic bag and it is ready.
There is a tutorial for knitting another cosmetic bag that uses a zipper as a closure. There is an opinion that even a beginner in crochet needlework can handle this type of crochet cosmetic bag.
To make the fabric of the cosmetic bag denser, not see through, and not stretch too much in the future, use two-thread knitting, but this is not necessary. The size of the described cosmetic bag is 18x12 cm, while a length of 20 cm is required for the zipper.
Since the cosmetic bag consists of two parts, it is necessary to knit them in the same stitches without a cape, namely, cast on 30 air loops and knit 12 cm.
We connect both resulting parts with a zipper - sew them on, and then sew them into a cosmetic bag. Be careful: you need to sew a zipper by placing it with the front strip on the back of each part, and you should sew the parts together along their backside, unzipping the zipper. This way, the extra stripes of the zipper will be hidden in the cosmetic bag and the seams of the connection will not be visible.
The cosmetic bag is ready, you can decorate it with ready-made decorative elements, as in the previous case, or you can knit and sew on a decoration in the form of a flower, as, for example, in the following diagram:
To do this, we connect 6 air loops with the corresponding column into something like a circle. Next, we knit in circular rows, following the pattern, knitting each first loop of the circular row with a chain stitch, ending with a connecting stitch in the last chain stitch of the beginning. Repeat this way from the first to the seventeenth circular rows.
The final result is a makeup bag like this:
Another type of creating a knitted cosmetic bag is to use polyethylene material instead of yarn, knitting a cosmetic bag from bags.
You need to approach the manufacture of such a product in the same way as using threads. Here we also need a hook, thread with a needle, scissors, fasteners, as well as bags - plain or multi-colored garbage bags.
To make crocheting material from a garbage bag, you need to cut strips of it 2-3 cm wide along the length.
The main part for a cosmetic bag can be a bottom 22 cm long, which is knitted from 4 rows of double crochets. This bottom needs to be tied in a circle with the fifth row behind the back wall of the loop. For the pattern you can use the following scheme:
When the height of the cosmetic bag reaches 13 cm, you need to knit the last row with double crochets behind the back wall of the loop of the previous row, after which you can sew a zipper into the cosmetic bag.
For beginning knitters, this option of making your own cosmetic bag will also not be particularly difficult if you follow the recommendations and patterns.
A product made from such material will last quite a long time, because polyethylene has enviable wear resistance. A cosmetic bag made from bags in the finished state will look like in this photo:

A woman’s makeup bag is her secret supply of essentials to always look her best. Naturally, such an important accessory must have an appropriate appearance. The models presented in stores are the same and boring. To diversify them, you need to make a lot of effort. So why waste time when a unique little thing can be done with your own hands in a couple of evenings? A cosmetic bag using a hook is a simple knitted product that even novice needlewomen can do with diagrams and descriptions.
By decorating a product with chains, ribbons or embroidery with beads, you get completely different accessories. In addition, you can vary the material from which the product is knitted. The classic version is cotton or synthetic threads; especially original models are made from bags. To knit it, you take plastic garbage bags of various colors, which with the help of ordinary stitches are transformed into an original cosmetic bag. Looking at photos like these, it’s hard to guess what such a handbag is made of.
Let's look at several models of cosmetic bags: starting from a simple version for beginners to a more complex one, where different types of columns are used. The proposed master class and video tips will help you understand the intricacies of execution.
A simple knitted cosmetic bag is made in the form of a single piece of fabric using simple double crochets and single crochets. To make such a thing you will need cotton yarn and a hook. We recommend choosing threads with glitter, this will make the accessory more elegant.
The size of the cosmetic bag is chosen at will, the standard parameters in the finished form are 15 by 20 cm. In reality, the product will be sewn up in the form of a bag, so the height should be knitted not 15 cm, but twice as much - 30 cm. The pattern is alternating rows of double crochets and single crochets.
After the fabric is knitted, we sew it on the sides. To prevent the contents of the cosmetic bag from getting lost, we sew in a lining and a zipper. The cosmetic bag is ready!
We decorate it with an applique of bright flowers, which are also crocheted. Having chosen the design you like, we make decorations one after another. Next, we steam them, hide the ends of the colored threads, place them on the outside of the cosmetic bag and sew them to it. At the end we add shine - glue rhinestones.
This is such an elegant mini-bag. It can be used not only for its intended purpose, but also as a clutch for an evening outfit.
Bright cosmetic bag.The next product is a little more difficult to perform, but the result is worth it. A multi-colored cosmetic bag is pleasing to the eye, and one of the advantages of knitting it is the use of leftover yarn.
The product has a square shape, the approximate side of the square is 12 centimeters. The front side and back side are knitted in separate fabrics. The bottom of the cosmetic bag is not knitted separately, but the product will still be voluminous due to the peculiarities of the pattern. The bag is fastened with a zipper.
For knitting, take thin cotton yarn and a hook corresponding to the thickness of the yarn. The finished accessory is decorated with beads.
Let's take a closer look at the knitting pattern. Its trick is that the lower (1) and upper (2) corners are performed differently. The absence of columns in the lower corners makes the cosmetic bag look voluminous. Due to the new volume, the cosmetic bag will have a bottom.
The wrong side is knitted according to a similar pattern, but with yarn of the same color.
After both fabrics are ready, steam them with an iron. The bottom should remain voluminous! A zipper is sewn to both halves of the cosmetic bag, and then the halves themselves are sewn together.
Cosmetic bag-bag.The last option is somewhat different from the other two, primarily in the shape of the cosmetic bag. It is made in the form of a small handbag. The peculiarity of the model is that it is seamless; by tying the bottom, the walls of the bag are immediately tied to it.
We start knitting the product from the bottom, making a chain of air loops and gradually tying it. The result will be an oval part.
Without tearing off the thread, we begin to tie the base, gradually building up the cosmetic bag with a pattern of columns. After the desired height is obtained, the work is divided into two parts and finished separately. In conclusion, the work is tied with fans of posts.
There is no fastener as such in this model, but you can try to carefully sew a zipper or button inside (you will have to additionally provide a loop for the button). If desired, a fabric lining to match the yarn is installed inside. We recommend preparing the lining in advance by sewing a “bag” out of fabric. The handbag is decorated with a knitted rose.
A crocheted cosmetic bag is a very popular product. The video materials below will tell you about its performance in different techniques.
This crocheted cosmetic bag is comfortable, soft and beautiful. If you choose the right pattern, you will get a beautiful specimen even without additional decor. I made a “marshmallow” cosmetic bag for a seven-year-old young princess. Because The child categorically did not want to be satisfied with one pattern; he needed “at least a rose,” and this demand had to be satisfied.
Yarn for knitting - acrylic. For children's (and not only children's) bags, handbags, cosmetic bags, it is good because, firstly, it does not become covered with pills, secondly, it tolerates even numerous washes well, and thirdly, it does not fray like cotton threads, which are not suitable for for active use, which means it will retain its presentable appearance for a relatively long time.
Our crocheted cosmetic bag is in the shape of a parallelepiped, but thanks to the softness of the knitting and the special, seemingly round pattern, the lines are softened. Thanks to its volume, the cosmetic bag is convenient: it can accommodate quite bulky items, even a set of 48 felt-tip pens, or a variety of rubber bands, bows, rings, and beads. And if we are talking about an adult young lady, then cosmetics in such a storage will probably also be convenient.
acrylic yarn of two colors - pink and milky, preferably of the same quality and thickness;
a hook of a size suitable for the yarn;
zipper;
a piece of light knitwear or (better) any inelastic cotton fabric - calico or chintz will do just fine;
sewing threads to match one of the colors of the yarn;
sewing needle;
cutting and small scissors;
contrasting thread for basting;
marker or pencil for cutting out the lining;
if you have one, a sewing machine.
We will knit a double rectangle, open at the top, without seams. To calculate the dimensions of the base rectangle:
For example: you want to get a finished cosmetic bag with a length of 20 cm, a height of 7 cm and a width of 5 cm. This means that you will need to knit a rectangle with an open part along the top (long) side with sides of 25 cm (i.e. 20+5) and 12 cm (i.e. 7+5).
Pattern diagram:
I knitted according to the given pattern, slightly improving it: if you are making a two-color pattern, I recommend making not one, but two rows of single crochets between the lush rows.
1. We knit a chain of air loops. In our case, we start knitting with pink yarn. The length of the chain when slightly stretched should be the length of the long part of the rectangle.
Because one pattern repeat is a multiple of 4 loops, I advise you to make an initial chain of air loops in an amount that is a multiple of four.
2. Next, we knit a row of single crochets, capturing only one side of each chain stitch. Having reached the edge, we then knit a row of single crochets, grabbing the remaining part of each loop from the initial chain, i.e. knit in circles. Having finished the circular row, close it with a blind loop. Do the same with each subsequent row - close it with a blind loop.
3. Change the color of the yarn. We knit two circles of single crochets with milky yarn.
4. Change the color of the yarn to pink. We knit the row this way: 3 ch. rise, *double crochet shifted to the left by one loop, 2 more double crochets. We knit the last double crochet stitch with the base into the first, previously skipped stitch of the previous row (see diagram)*. Repeat from * to * until the end of the row.
This is what the bottom looks like when flattened:
5. Repeat steps 3-4 until the desired height of the rectangle.
From the fabric, folded in half, we cut out a rectangle the same size as a knitted cosmetic bag on the outside. The fold on the fabric should coincide with the bottom on the knitted rectangle. No seam allowances are needed. We sew the side seams (using a sewing machine or by hand, whichever is convenient) - we get the lining of the desired size, slightly smaller than the knitted part.
Turn the knitted part inside out and the lining right side out. We put the knitted part into the lining and straighten it well.
We straighten the corners on both sides of the rectangle and pin them together with a pin, as shown in the photo below.
We remember the school mathematics course and calculate at what distance from the corner the seam should be laid along line b in order to get a crocheted cosmetic bag of the planned width.
The formula looks like this: 2a²=b²
A simpler option is to place the ruler perpendicular to the fold in the lining of the cosmetic bag and move it down until the length b is equal to the width of the cosmetic bag. In our case, b is equal to the width of the cosmetic bag.
If b=5 cm, then a²=b²:2=5x5:2=12.5
The square root of 12.5 cm is approximately 3.53 cm. This is side a.
The b line can be drawn with a pencil, and then a stitch can be sewn along it, through all four layers of the lining and the knitted part, by hand or on a sewing machine.
Place such stitches for both lower corners of the cosmetic bag, and then for the upper ones, aligning the upper edges of the cosmetic bag as if they were sewn.
We turn the stitched corners to the end of the cosmetic bag inside it and secure it with several stitches.
We sew in a zipper. We put it between the top cut of the lining and the edge of the knitted part of the cosmetic bag and thread both parts of the zipper with a thread of a contrasting color. Move the lock back and forth several times to check for movement; does the product warp when the zipper is closed, does the zipper run over the yarn or fabric. If everything is in order, sew the zipper on a machine or by hand.
