The June Tote is a lightweight reusable bag great for your summer essentials or strolling through the farmer's market. Two handles allows this market tote to be handheld or slung over your shoulder. Make one, make two or make a few to keep on hand for the grocery store. I've included a photo tutorial on how to get this bag started. I used one of my favorite stitches, what I call the v-arch. It's just a v-stitch with ch 3 instead of ch 1, but I love it. I first used it in my summer poncho/coverup The Merletto Poncho.

If you're a mother to a toddler or baby, you know just how difficult it is to carry multiple things in your purse for yourself and your child, and then you have your child attached at the hip (literally). No woman wants a huge purse to lug around with all that, which is where The Perfect Purse comes into play. This free crochet bag pattern has a shorter strap with a smaller bag portion so you can still fit the essentials while allowing the bag to stay on your shoulder instead of falling down. The special spike stitch is used giving the bag a bit of a funky look.

The Sock Monkey Crochet Bag is a fun pattern to work up for both boys and girls. This roomy messenger-style tote bag is easy to crochet, though a bit involved with a number of various steps. It measures about 11.5 inches wide, 10.5 inches tall, and 3 inches deep at the base, so it's just the right size for carrying school books, tablets, laptops, and magazines. Sock monkeys are classic toys that have been around for decades, so both kids and adults will appreciate this sock-monkey inspired crochet bag.

This tote bag is completely reversible. It is worked as one piece on a base and then seamed together to make it fully reversible. I added purchased faux leather handles, but of course if you prefer, you could crochet handles instead. The first side is worked in a basic chevron with a modification for a fun look. The second side has a tapestry look. The bag is nicely sized at approximately 12″ x 13″ not including the handles, but it is easy enough to increase or decrease sizing."
