Made for you

Why you need Macramé Bags & Accessories

Makers who want wearable, practical macramé

Crafters looking for quick gifts such as keychains and hair clips

Anyone who wants a custom-fit phone bag or everyday tote

Knotters with leftover cord to put to good use

A handmade bag gets noticed. Macramé Bags & Accessories is a 108-page pattern book devoted to the things you carry and wear, from a phone bag that keeps your hands free to a bucket bag roomy enough for a market run.

Four macrame bag patterns

The Cell Phone Travel Bag opens the book. It finishes at about 6 by 4 inches, has a fold-over flap and a detachable strap with lobster-clasp clips, and the instructions encourage you to adjust the width and length to fit your own phone. The pattern gives a total cord requirement of 153 feet of 2 mm 3-ply cotton, broken down into exactly how many cords to cut for the body and the strap.

Next is the Fringed Cross-Body Purse, a boho shape finished with swingy fringe. The Sweet Net Bag uses an open mesh that is ideal for produce or beach days, and the Stylish Bucket Bag is the most substantial project in the book, working a structured body you can use every day.

Accessories that use leftover cord

The second half is full of smaller makes that are perfect for gifting or for using up remnants from bigger projects:

A barefoot sandal-like ornament and a summer hat decoration
Three hair clips: zig zag, square knot and diagonal double half hitch
A macramé belt and decorative ornament tassels
Three keychains: a wristlet, a double-color heart and a spiral

Clear, measured instructions

Every project lists finished dimensions, cord type and cut lengths, then moves through numbered steps with photos. The bag patterns build panels from square knots and alternating square knots, so they are a natural next step once you are comfortable with those knots. Keep the PDF on your phone to check steps on the go, or print a pattern to mark off rows as you work.

Frequently asked questions

How much cord does a bag take?

It depends on the design. The cell phone travel bag, for example, calls for 153 feet of 2 mm 3-ply cotton cord, cut into specific lengths for the body and strap. Each pattern lists its own totals and cut lengths, so you can buy what you need before starting.

Can I change the size of the phone bag?

Yes. The pattern encourages you to decide the length and width you want before starting so the bag fits your phone. It finishes around 6 by 4 inches as written. Adding or removing cords changes the width, while more or fewer knot rows change the length.

Which project should I try first?

The hair clips and keychains are the quickest wins and use little cord, making them good warm-ups. Once your square knots and alternating square knots look even, move on to the phone bag, then the larger purse, net bag and bucket bag.
