Gingham Tote Bag Free Crochet Pattern
"Carry all of your essential items, create ease in shopping or take a trip to the beach with this gorgeous gingham crochet tote. Worked in two panels and seamed, this project is straight forward and has a lovely finish. This pattern is written in US terms. My swatch of 10 sc x 10 rows is approximately 2 ¼” by 2 ¼”. Height - Approximately 15 inches Width - Approximately 13 inches Handle - Approximately 13 inches high from tote to mid point on handle. I used approximately 3/4 of a skein of each color. Any medium(4) weight you prefer to use is fine, you do not have to use the colors I did. I used acrylic yarn, but you can use cotton if you prefer. Please keep in mind that this can change the dimensions of the bag. You can line this bag if you prefer, I decided not to."
Large Durable Plarn Tote
"The large size of this tote makes it perfect for carrying a wide range of items, from shopping to swim towels. This bag is made up of over one hundred plastic shopping bags. Core material (also made of plastic bags) is added every three rounds to increase durability and add rigidity to the tote. This pattern is relatively simple, the only stitches you need to know are single crochet and slip stitch. You will also need to know how to work in the round."
Bonjour Belle Market Bag
This fabulous Mesh Market Bag is worked in a c2c mesh stitch which is so easy and works up so quickly! The c2c crochet mesh stitch is so easy and works up so quickly. Worked corner to corner or on the bias so there is no need for a large foundation chain. Once you have a square you will work around the outside edge and prepare handle edges by working two sides of decreases. This pulls the bag together while also creating an easy way to add your wood handles. The wood handles are crocheted right into the top edges of bag. I have a complete video tutorial available for both the c2c mesh stitch as well as a tutorial to help you finish up your bag!
