Take Me Everywhere Crochet Tote Bag

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.

Endless Summer Tote Bag

"This tote bag is comprised up of floral afghan squares that were inspired by Hydrangeas, and also features a beautiful ribbed pattern. As far as the lining goes, in the past, I have crocheted other tote bags that I chose not to line, and I ended up really disappointed with how much they stretched out, so I made sure with this one that I added a lining to the bag itself, and the strap. I highly recommend if you will be carrying around anything with a little weight. I used Red Heart Super Saver, which is a pretty durable yarn, however, I think a cotton yarn such as Lily Sugar n Cream would have been a better option for something that will keep a lot of use, and dragged around from one place to another. The cotton option will also make the bag a little larger."

Market Day Bag

Over the years I have made a couple different bags, I have made two Totally Toteable Totes and the Honeycomb Beach Bag but I didn't have a market bag yet, so I had to design the Market Day Bag! When I discovered Lion Brand's 24/7 Cotton, I knew I needed to make a market bag with it! I wanted a bag that had a gorgeous open lace like look but it also needed to have a gorgeous texture. Even though the fabric has a lace like look, the fabric is strong and durable!

Crochet Bag Handles pattern

Here's another pattern to make a non-stretchy crochet strap: using fishing line! I think the best thing about using fishing line to make sure your crochet strap is non-stretchy is that it doesn't add a whole lot of fiddling about with your project.

You won't have to make extra pieces or do anything fancy. Just make sure the fishing line follows along with each stitch and you're all set to go.
