Make your own summer bag with this Sunburst Circle Bag crochet pattern, featuring a flap and fastening and raised sunburst design.

I love the circle bag and basket bag trend but couldn’t find one with a closing and fastening, so I designed one! It’s easy to crochet and only uses one ball of yarn so is quick and affordable too.

You can choose from two yarn options - jute twine for a rustic look and strong construction or raffia, which has more of a shine and works up slightly smaller, with some stretch to it. Gauge and sizes for both are included with the pattern as I couldn’t pick a favourite!

It’s the perfect finishing touch to any summer outfit.

Skill level: Basic, you will need to know chain, slip stitches and treble crochet (US double crochet) stitches.

5mm hook and jute twine x 1 250m ball OR 4.5mm hook – Ra ra raffia yarn in Desert Palm (250m) x 1 ball
