Here is a really easy liner that can be applied to any shape of crochet bag that you're working on. I use a "running/straight" stitch but if you are concerned that it won't be a tight enough join, I would recommend a "backstitch". That will give you a join that is more similar to a sewing machine. I haven't had issues with the running stitch but just wanted to mention it in case. xx
I've been watching different tutorials on non-sewing machine methods and kept wondering "can't you just do a regular old straight stitch?" and apparently that answer is yes lol!! thanks for showing me that it can be as simple as I wanted it to be.
I really appreciate that you showed how to do this without a sewing machine. I don't have one, so hand sewing is my only option and I never know what stitch to use when they just say "sew along"
Where have you been all my crochet life?!?!?! I absolutely LOVE your videos and tutorials. Thank you so very much for sharing your gifts with us fellow yarn benders!!!!!!
I honestly thought sewing a liner without a sewing machine was going to be hard, but the tutorial that you made is very informative and helps so much! ❤
So thankful for your video! I’ve made a similar crochet bucket bag and didn’t want to gift it without a lining because I know it will stretch but have been so intimidated and don’t have a machine. Cheers!
Thank you so much!! I've always wanted to add a liner to crochet bags, but not being a great sewer, I've not had the courage to try it. You've made this so simple to follow and I will definitely have a go now! 😊
Thank you for posting this! I am making myself a purse and I was so scared to do the lining because I am not good at sewing at all. You made me feel confident though because I know I can do a straight stitch.
i love this tutorial, i keep seeing ones with a sewing machine and honestly i haven’t done that in years so i’m quite intimidated to try again so seeing u do it by hand very simply was nice. Cant wait to try it! :)
Bless you, just what I needed, I can't use a sewing machine and wanted to make a liner to sew myself...And then, a no sew option too?? Brilliant!!! Thank you so much!
Hi Roz, Thank you for sharing this amazing tip. If I make any bag, purse, or other item that requires a liner I’m definitely using this tip. Take care and stay safe and well. God’s blessings 🙏🏽💗🧶😻👛 Enjoy your holiday.
It was GREAT help! Thank you! I don't sew, and I was so worried about this but you made it look easy, you explained it well and gave me confidence to do it. It worked well (although, I did "cheat" a used tape glue for the top flap 😅) ❤
Good afternoon Roz hope you are enjoying your vacation . Thanks for today's video. If I'm hand sewing where it would not be seen on the right side I always do the backstitch so it would be more secure . Continue to enjoy your vacation.
Omg Roz you did it!! You listened to us and even took time on vacation for us. Awww You're the best!! Thank you so much!! Excellent video, just what I needed! ☮💜☯️
Thank you so much for your videos! 💜 I began learning how to crochet 3 weeks ago and your way of teaching has been incredibly helpful. I'm currently working on a granny square blanket and I've got 18 completed so far, I think. I just found your video on how to attach them with a lacy braided look and I can't wait to use it! I'm using heavy yarn and it'll give it a lighter look 😊 thank you!
Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial! I was so wary of adding a lining as I don’t have a sewing machine but this looks so easy am going to try one right away!
Love this!!! I have very little sewing experience but I’d love to find a way to put a light lining into a light-weight black backpack. The dimensions won’t be as simple but I can figure that out. The part I’m caught on is how to fasten it. Obviously I’ll stay away from using an iron to avoid melting the bag. Stitching the lining may compensate the integrity of the bag. Thanks!
Wow, thanks so much, I’ve made a few little bags, it’s been suggested to me to line them, but, I just don’t sew, even a button scares me 😂. But, now I’ve seen your wonderful tutorial, I feel more relaxed. ❤
Tip; if you don't have an iron maybe there's a hair straightener in your home. Use that lol! That's all I use for my sewing needs as i'm in a fema trailer and have no room for an iron. Works great! (I'm back on this video bc im finally starting my lining😍)
Thank you for the amazing and informative tutorial! Im crocheting matching bags for my sister and I, and I want to prevent the bag from stretching too much. Lol
Great tutorial. 😊 I always line my crocheted bags out of necessity, and I always make pockets on both sides of the bag liner. I also use a cotton fabric. I make one long rectangle pocket then sew 2 seams which make 3 smaller pockets to hold anything I need, I just cant tolerate not being able to organize my purse items.
Hi Roz , love love your tutorials, always so well explained and this one on lining of the bag is absolutely amazing. I have always bought cotton bags from Amazon and used them for lining the crochet granny square bags that i do a lot ( in the last two years I have crocheted about fifteen granny square bags for friends and families) and the bags cost quite a bit but that’s cheating 😂is it not? But I have learned now from your tutorial how easy it is to line a bag , a big big thank you and by the way I just love your voice, i could just listen to you all day long and your have inspired me a lot too, love all your tutorials. Love Hasu from London Uk 👍❤️🙏🏻❤️
What a lovely message , thank you so much. I like to buy the bag inserts too! I get the linen bags that already have handles on them so talk about cheating! 🫢🤣🤣 I’m so glad you found the video useful, thanks for watching 😀🤗🧶💕
Yes! Link is under the video in the description box and also at the very beginning of this tutorial. I posted the tutorial last week so you should be able to easily find it on my page 🧶💕
These are awesome options. I have made some beachy bags with large holes but people are complaining things will fall through and want a liner. They are super stretchy so how would i allow for material to enlarge also? Ugghhh.
It sounds like the type of bags you’ve made is designed to be more of a mesh style ? Adding a liner to it isn’t t impossible , it just won’t expand like it did before the liner. I’d recommend using an old sheet to “practice” on. Do this method and add a liner to one of your bags and see how it looks. Just do a loose stitch around so that you can easily remove after he experiment. It might work well , it might not. But if it does, then you can redo it with nice fabric and take better care with the sewing. 👍🏻
this is a really helpful video and i appreciate it! im going to use this as a guide for my first crochet bag lining but im worried of how long it would take. im wondering how long did it take you to finish all the sewing?
That took me about an hour maybe an hour and a half since I was also recording . If you are new to it , it might take longer but you’ll soon get the hang of it 👌🏻💕
You would do it very similar to this by getting a big square of fabric maybe a half inch bigger all the way around (1/4 inch on each side) then you would fold it in to give a nice folded edge that fits nicely behind the crochet blanket . Then hand stitch or use your favorite gluing technique. Here’s another video where I show no sew options that might help give you some more ideas : ruclips.net/video/MYjEfF6Me4s/видео.htmlsi=RsutclSM6wMDxCkN
The opening? No , I’m not quite sure what you aren’t understanding. You’re using the glue in replacement of the sewing. Maybe watching the Ewing version will help Clarify it for you 💕
Sewing holds better but gluing is easier if you have less experience. I’d recommend sewing because it’s very easy by hand and you’ll catch on quickly. ❤️
In my experience, not enough that it’s going to affect your seam. It’s not in an area where it will get a lot of friction . If you are concerned by that you can always add a little fray glue to the edge but like I said , it hasn’t been an issue for me.
You know, I'm sort of in the same boat. I have a beanie I want to crochet and realized I can add a fleece liner to it easily with this same method. lol Thanks for watching xx

Oh good, I’m so happy to read this 😀🙌🏻❤️
I’m almost at the liner stage. The way you’ve presented your tutorial certainly does make it easy peasy 🤭 thank you
Good ! 😀👏🏻❤️

Watching this two years later! Still such a big help! I just completed my daughter’s first backpack for school! She loves it:)
Oh that’s wonderful, I’m so glad it helped 😀💕
I really appreciate that you showed how to do this without a sewing machine. I don't have one, so hand sewing is my only option and I never know what stitch to use when they just say "sew along"
So glad it helped. Hand sewing is relaxing - nice benefit 👍🏻💕
Omg! What a coincidence I bought my fabric before watching your video and its's the same one!
Wowee!!! 🐝 🤩👏🏻

Thank you so much, I got really lucky with that one 😀👏🏻❤️

Thank you so much , Elise!! That was a happy accident 😆💕💕💕

Hi. I love the bag....do you have a tutorial about that one, would you mind sharing it?
I love this
Awesome, I’m so glad, thank you 💕
You have an tutorial on making this hand bag it's so cute....
Yes, the link is in the description box below the video 👍🏻💕
Wonderful tutorial! But I’m always worried that just a runners stitch would be not be strong enough for the liner so I use a double runner instead
Or the back stitch would be a great option 👍🏻💕 thanks for watching !
Is there a video for the cute crochet bag too? Adorable!
Yes! Link is under the video in the description box and also at the very beginning of this tutorial. I posted the tutorial last week so you should be able to easily find it on my page 🧶💕

That took me about an hour maybe an hour and a half since I was also recording . If you are new to it , it might take longer but you’ll soon get the hang of it 👌🏻💕
Hey! Do I have to sew the bottom too?
Only if you aren’t folding it. If you fold your fabric in two, then no you don’t need to sew it. 👍🏻💕
How would you do this for a baby blanket? I've been stumped on a no sew fabric backing to a baby blanket
You would do it very similar to this by getting a big square of fabric maybe a half inch bigger all the way around (1/4 inch on each side) then you would fold it in to give a nice folded edge that fits nicely behind the crochet blanket . Then hand stitch or use your favorite gluing technique.
Here’s another video where I show no sew options that might help give you some more ideas :
ruclips.net/video/MYjEfF6Me4s/видео.htmlsi=RsutclSM6wMDxCkN
I didn't understand the no sew part. Was the opening of the lining ironed shut?
The opening? No , I’m not quite sure what you aren’t understanding. You’re using the glue in replacement of the sewing. Maybe watching the Ewing version will help
Clarify it for you 💕
Which of the two methods hold better or require less experience?
Sewing holds better but gluing is easier if you have less experience. I’d recommend sewing because it’s very easy by hand and you’ll catch on quickly. ❤️
Ok, thank you!
Wouldn’t the edges of the liner fray?
In my experience, not enough that it’s going to affect your seam. It’s not in an area where it will get a lot of friction . If you are concerned by that you can always add a little fray glue to the edge but like I said , it hasn’t been an issue for me.
technically I had no need for this but now I'm thinking about lining one of the bags I made as a christmas present for my mum hmm
You know, I'm sort of in the same boat. I have a beanie I want to crochet and realized I can add a fleece liner to it easily with this same method. lol Thanks for watching xx
Sorry, I'm not watching right. I saw it already. Thank you.
Thanks for this. Very easy and useful information. 🧶💕
