"The Springtime Market Bag is the perfect spring and summertime accessory. This pattern was designed to be super functional and trendy. It's perfect for carrying your beach towels and sunscreen, as well as your current WIP's and crochet projects! To make this market bag you'll need a 5 mm crochet hook and 100% cotton yarn. I ended up using the colors white and jute and I am totally obsessed with the color combination. This bag is worked from the base upward finishing off with the straps. This bag is sure to be a spring and summer favorite!"

"The Bodega Bag is an easy crochet market bag pattern. It is worked in one piece, with the body made first and the straps last. The body of the bag is designed using triple crochet stitches to make a stretchy mesh so you can fit almost anything in this carry-all! Made using mercerized cotton it is sturdy and will last a lifetime. Perfect for carrying a large amount of groceries at once. This project takes a little longer because it is made with sport weight yarn, but it is 100% worth it. "

"Everyone needs an everyday satchel for your essential bits and bobs and the Quotidian Satchel delivers that and more. Mixing practicality with style, this easy to make textured satchel comes in 3 sizes to make sure you have just the right one for the occasion. Add a couple of buckles and a strap and you're good to go! This is a crochet pattern for the Quotidian Crochet Satchel bag in three sizes. The satchel bag is crocheted using US sc and dc stitches/ UK dc and tr stitches and comes with full terminology for both. "

"Create this stunning triangular bag with this easier-than-you-think crochet pattern. A stitch pattern of sc and dc is easy to remember and creates a dense fabric with texture. By creatively folding a simple rectangle you magically start to form this tote. This project is perfect for keeping fingers busy while still being able to talk and watch TV. This statement bag measures 16” wide by 18” tall and makes a great tote or project bag. Made with a 4.00mm (US G) crochet hook and Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton yarn in two colors. Two skeins of each color are needed."

"I have been having so much fun creating new bags and accessories using the Red Heart Scrubby Smoothie cotton I was recently gifted. It is really a durable and lovely category 4 fiber. I made this market tote bag - which quite easily serves as a beach bag as well. You can make the strap as long or short as you like. Since I go to the pool or beach more than the market, I opted for a longer strap to carry my towel and sundries. I hope you love this pattern and make yourself the perfect market / beach tote. "

This Crochet Market Bag would be great for shopping at the grocery store or farmer’s market, carrying other crochet projects or going to the pool. Basic crochet stiches - single crochet, half double crochet and double crochet stitches are all you need to know to make this Market Bag. The instructions have detailed directions for crocheting the handle. The bag measures approximately 16" x 9” (not including the handles). The handles are short and sturdy. Some shoulder straps really stretch and almost make the bag unusable, so I created this bag to be a ‘handbag’ and not a shoulder bag.

"This beautiful tapestry crochet drawstring bag with a cat is what every cat lover should have. It is a very quick project and it is great for practicing tapestry crochet. The pattern includes a written pattern, a color chart and detailed photo instructions showing how to make this cute bag, so you could try it even if you are not familiar with tapestry crochet. This bag could also be a very nice and original gift to your friend or a family member!"

"This bucket crochet bag was designed initially for I Like Crochet magazine for the Chevron Collection issue. I wanted the colors to be somewhat neutrals, so I chose jute as the main color and added light pink and white to add some color and interest into the bag. The pattern is worked in the round from the bottom to the top. At the top of the bag, we create eyelets to add a drawstring and a dainty metal strap is added to the bag (you can also use a fabric strap). The bag is comfortable and light, but big enough to carry all your essentials."

"I have switched over to reusable bags to cut down on the use of plastic bags, so I came up with this pattern using the classic granny stitch. I am happy to provide this pattern free on my website.This pattern is for an 11” x 13” fun, summery market bag. You can never have enough of these! I keep some in my car for all of my shopping trips. The pattern is easily adjustable to make the bag any size you want."

"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."
