1. Loop
18 beautiful crocheted bags

Modern bags. Timeless craft. Creativity in every stitch.

1.Loop is a beautiful and inspiring crochet book filled with stunning bags you can complete in just a day or two. The designs blend traditional techniques with contemporary style, all through simple, easy-to-follow patterns.

This book is an invitation to rediscover the joy of creating, of finding calm and focus in a noisy, fast-scrolling world. Too often, we spend hours on screens when we could be making something real, something meaningful.

Crochet is more than a hobby. It boosts your brain, reduces stress, and offers the deeply satisfying feeling of finishing a project you love. It’s also wonderfully social, crocheting in public sparks conversations and curiosity. You might even inspire someone else to put down their phone and pick up a hook.

Each bag is named after someone who’s inspired the authors. People of all ages, from 10 to 90, whose creativity, kindness, and love for crochet remind us: this craft belongs to everyone.
