This crossbody bag is a one-skein project. I love one skein projects. This bag was made using Bernat Home Decor yarn. I love the stitch definition that this yarn provides and how this is perfect for a Macrame inspired bag like this one. The pattern also tells you how to add a lining so your bag would be more sturdy and won't stretch and sag. This bag is the perfect size to hold your keys, wallet and a bottle of water.

My favorite thing about big tote bags is they can be used for pretty much anything. This Mediterranean Market Tote (named after the beautiful, bold colors) can be used as a grocery bag at the farmer's market, or carried as an over-sized purse. This particular crochet bag pattern calls for 7 different colors, but if you skip the stripes, you can make it using only 3 skeins of yarn. If you do crochet the stripes, you'll only need less than 50 yards of each color, so this crochet tote is also a great stash buster project, too.
This deep purse is quick and easy to make! Using 3 colors there is no need to cut the yarn between rows, just carry them along the side. The Cascade Yarns 128 Superwash is thick and crochets very smoothly. Each row is shaped with stitches of varying heights and increases or decreases. The purse is plenty big to carry all your goods or even to carry around your current WiP (Work in Progress). The sample is made with shades of blue, but you can make yours in any colors that make you happy!
This bag works up super fast - make one this afternoon and carry it out tonight! And while it's mini compared to it's big sister the Messenger Bag, it's still got plenty of room for all your essentials!
The Speedy V-Stitch Market Bag is great for those summer and fall markets, grocery shopping, beach and pool days, and even makes a great bag to carry your crochet projects for when you're crocheting on-the-go!

The base of the bag is nice and roomy, while the top tapers in a little bit, making it great for holding a surprising amount of items of all shapes and sizes while being comfortable on your shoulder.

I enjoyed making the small stash baskets so much I decided to see what I could do with 3-strands of medium weight yarn and I crocheted this Yarn Stash Basket. This container is great for so many purposes - from holding your WIP yarns to using to hold mittens, scarves and hats by the front door. Crocheted by working with 3-strands of medium weight held together this basket works up quickly and uses just over 3 balls of Red Heart Super Saver Yarn (236 yds balls). Have fun with your yarn!
