This free crochet shopping bag pattern is ideal for those looking to replace their non-eco friendly plastic shopping bag with a handmade, crochet market bag. This Granny Stitch crochet project uses self striping yarn, so the colours really show themselves off to full effect. This pattern is beginner friendly featuring only the basic crochet stitches and the ever popular Granny Stitch - my favourite! I made my Granny's Shopping Bag using Caron Cotton Cakes in shade Garden Oasis and I love the colours. They really remind me of hazy summer days spent shopping for Knick Knacks - and I can fit plenty inside this market bag!
