This is the "Take me everywhere" crochet tote handbag using lionbrand's ZZ twist yarn using 2 colors from the catalog, taupe and ecru. This crochet tote handbag can be used for many purposes, it can be a regular bag, a crochet work bag, a summer beach bag or even a farmer's market bag. It is flexible and strong at the same time, thanks to the strong base I designed to make this handbag hold still. In the pattern, you can find instructions that explain how to make the strong base bottom. This pattern is perfect for learning how to make a tote bag with flat bottom.

Perfect Day Market Tote
The Perfect Day Market Tote was inspired by all my trips to the local farmer’s market this season - the start to a perfect summer day! But you don't have to take it to the market - it's handy wherever you go. And it's a free crochet pattern on Moogly! This is a big, big market bag - but the clever thing about this pattern is that you can actually make it any size! Instructions for this is included. I made the Perfect Day Market Tote in three lovely neutral shades of Red Heart Scrubby Smoothie - it's the perfect yarn for this project! And it comes in tons of colors - so I can't wait to see which ones you choose for your Perfect Bag!
Citrus Twist Tote
The Citrus Twist Tote brings a fresh squeeze to the ever popular crochet cotton market bag! The Citrus Twist Tote is made with 4 bright colors of Red Heart Scrubby Smoothie that made me think of… well, citrus! But of course, there are 30 gorgeous solids and prints of Scrubby Smoothie to choose from - who want to whip up a Berry Smoothie version? Or something Beachy in cool blues? The Citrus Twist Tote features a two-row repeat that's easy to memorize and works up fast. I have included all the row instructions (rather than a general repeat) so you can cross them off as you go - time for some of that “easy summer living”, or at least easy summer crocheting!
1 Skein Farmer's Market Bag
Don't go to farmers markets without a tote of your own - make sure to bring along the 1 Skein Farmer's Market Bag. In the designer's own words, "this slouchy farmer’s market bag is perfect for shopping and hauling all kinds of goodies! It only uses one skein of yarn and can be used countless times instead of those icky plastic bags that really hurt our planet. I recommend using a cotton yarn for durability but photographed is an acrylic (I Love This Yarn in Pasha). Hope you guys enjoy this one, don't forget to post as a project so I can see your beautiful bags!
The Beach Blossoms Market Bag
While it may be hot outside this time of year, the cool and calming shades of The Beach Blossoms Market Bag will have you imagining you are dragging your feet through the wet sand, or enjoying the feeling of cool water lapping against your toes. While designed as a market bag, The Beach Blossoms works well as an everyday tote, or bag to take to the beach! It is designed to easily be made larger or smaller to fit your needs (especially when it comes to shopping!). While designed with Caron Cotton Cakes in mind, cotton yarns of all types and colours will accentuate the stitching and style of the bag.
