This new crochet market bag is made using the puff stitch. The crochet puff stitch adds texture and shape to a classic design like this. That's why I love it so much. This would make an amazing grocery bag pattern to take with you to the farmers market and on errands. This crochet bag is also perfect for the beach as it's an open stitch pattern. That means any sand you get in your bag will slip right out.
