Sunshine Market Bag Free Crochet Pattern
"I have been having so much fun creating new bags and accessories using the Red Heart Scrubby Smoothie cotton I was recently gifted. It is really a durable and lovely category 4 fiber. I made this market tote bag - which quite easily serves as a beach bag as well. You can make the strap as long or short as you like. Since I go to the pool or beach more than the market, I opted for a longer strap to carry my towel and sundries. I hope you love this pattern and make yourself the perfect market / beach tote. "
