TagsTricolor Tote
"The Tricolor Tote has so many fun details - changing stitch patterns, fun tassels, braided handles - but its soft color palette and orderly structure bring balance to this fast and fun (and free!) crochet pattern! The Tricolor Tote was designed using Lion Brand Fast-Track, which is a really fun and unique yarn! Soft cotton/poly blend in a tape-like shape, it's like crocheting with your favorite t-shirts. And I love the look it gives projects! This tote is also another pattern on my never-ending search for the ideal bag handles. I've tried many different methods over the years, but I think this is the first time I've tried braids! This yarn lends itself really well to these braided handles, with only a tiny bit of stretch, lots of strength, and some great color play that ends in tassels! If this handle style isn’t to your taste, you can always add pre-purchased handles, or crochet your own using the linked tutorial!"
Tilted Heart Tote
Other supplies needed: Leisure Arts Diamond Art Heart Kit Hole Punch (approx. 1/4”/6mm hole) Purse Handles Fabric for lining (optional) The Tilted Heart Tote is blingy, fun, roomy, and a unique combination of yarn and a very special fabric! Photo tutorial included! The Tilted Heart Tote features the Leisure Arts Diamond Kit in the Heart Design, which inspired the rest of the tote, and is clearly the centerpiece! While I took inspiration from the fabric in the Heart Design for my pattern, you could use this same idea for any of the Beginner Kits, which have a finished area of 8.7″ x 8.7″.

Eve's Reversible Tote Bag
This tote bag is completely reversible. It is worked as one piece on a base and then seamed together to make it fully reversible. I added purchased faux leather handles, but of course if you prefer, you could crochet handles instead. The first side is worked in a basic chevron with a modification for a fun look. The second side has a tapestry look. The bag is nicely sized at approximately 12″ x 13″ not including the handles, but it is easy enough to increase or decrease sizing."
Simple Tote
"Crochet a simple and minimalist tote bag. This is a quick tote to crochet and doesn't use much yarn (about 140 yards of bulky weight yarn). The tote will hold all your necessary items (wallet, phone, credit cards, hand sanitizer and more). Beginners will love this tote as the pattern calls for only basic crochet stitches: chain, single crochet and half double crochet. Grab a skein of bulky weight #5 yarn, an L hook and a couple bamboo handles - enjoy!"
