"The Library Tote Crochet Book Bag is a book lover's best friend. This rectangle bag is composed of a sturdy single crochet bottom with two wide handles for comfort. Bring it to the farmer's market, the library or the yarn store. When we hit the library we never seem to have enough hands or bags for all the books. I love this bag for these trips. It's yarn so it stretches, but it's more supportive than a mesh bag."
