• One big button
• Scissors
• Yarn needle
• Fabric for lining
• Thread and needle (or sewing machine)

Note: Basically, this crochet 2 in 1 bag project can be made with any type of yarn and hook size. Choose a yarn type that matches your hook.

I used chainless starting dc for every 1st dc of each round instead of ch 3. In the pattern below, you’ll see I simply state dc for every 1st dc of each round, so just choose your best technique.

Special Stitch Used

No-space V-stitch: (it’s a basic dc V-stitch without ch1-space between the V).
