In this part of the video, the creator continues working on a crochet project using leftover materials to make a cute little backpack. They use a 6 mm crochet hook and work with a double strand of yarn, which can be of different colors or the same color. The project starts with a chain of 12 plus one, and then they begin crocheting single crochets into the chain. The creator explains the importance of placing markers in the stitches, with the first marker being a different color to signify the starting point, and the others in the same color. As they progress, they crochet single stitches across, placing three markers in the last three stitches of the row. After completing the row, they demonstrate how to join the ends using a slip stitch and start the next row by working two stitches together.

In this part of the video, the creator demonstrates how to knit an oval-shaped fabric. Key actions include removing the marker where laps start and end, closing the space with a slip stitch, and weaving the first increase. The creator emphasizes placing markers at corresponding points and continues knitting stitches until reaching the next marker to weave more increases. They highlight the ease of knitting oval fabrics, whether using double or single strands, and advise on counting rounds to ensure accuracy. In round 7, no increases are made, and the markers are removed. Finally, they prepare to expand the project, transitioning from the base to growing the bag.

In this part of the video, the creator demonstrates weaving the first round through the spears and thorns of a backpack, making space for a seat. They describe changing colors by chaining, cutting, and introducing the next color. The creator advises marking the starting and ending point of the round to avoid confusion and continues weaving using the X Stitch, common in Amigurumi, for the entire bag. The final base measures 22 centimeters, a practical size. The process involves working in the back loop, entering stitches, and starting new rounds repeatedly. After advancing a few rows with single crochets, they change color again, slip stitch to close, chain, and cut.

In this part of the video, the instructor demonstrates how to change colors while crocheting and instructs to work up to a total of 25 rows without counting the base. The piece should measure approximately 19 centimeters, but you can make it higher if desired. When the rows are complete, the instructor teaches to stop at a marked place, then work three single crochets, chain two, and enter in the third space while repeating this pattern. After finishing the round, single crochets are made all around with two in each chain space. An additional row is added to make a total of three rows, then slip stitch, chain one, and cut to finish. To decorate, using a double strand, make a chain approximately 85 centimeters long and thread it through the crochet piece in an alternating above-below pattern.

In this part of the video, the creator is completing the final steps of making a crochet backpack. They start by creating nine points and closing them with a slip stitch, followed by chaining one, turning, and filling the chain with single crochet stitches. Once done, they make 70 chains for the handle using a double strand, emphasizing not to make the chain too long. The chain is then worked on with double crochets around. After finishing, the creator decorates with single crochet stitches around a shorter chain, explaining its approximate measurement of 62 centimeters.
