Ever wanted to try your hand at crocheting Mochila bags but were too afraid of getting tired halfway? Then the Desert Cacti Zipper Pouch<\/strong> might be the right pattern for you!<\/p>\n\n\n

This crochet zipper bag is colorful, bold, and just the right size to try tapestry crochet with more than 2 strands of yarn!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I didn’t want to go overboard and make something super complicated. So, I adjusted the pattern of this sunset landscape so that you’ll always need 3 strands of yarn for each round<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result is a cute pattern that helped me transition from bicolored patterns to something more interesting<\/strong> and challenging<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, crocheting with 3 strands of yarn can lead to a pretty messy and tangled situation. So, I did some research and found this very helpful method by Atelier Sopra<\/a>, which will help you keep your sanity with tapestry crochet!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To finish up my bag, I added a zipper and a lining to give it a more professional look. Check out this step-by-step tutorial to see how to line your crochet bag with a zipper<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And here it is! My zipper bag is ready to serve as a notion bag<\/strong> while I travel back home for the summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you can totally add a handle or a cross-body strap and make it into an elegant accessory for a night out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
