The Mercato Crossbody Tote is ideal for traveling, a day at the mercato {market}, or a playdate at the park. It's comfortable, and stays out of the way, but is where you need it. Market totes are such great summer makes. I gifted this one to my son's teacher, and she loved it. It's fast, easy and doesn't take much yarn-perfect for gifts. I've crocheted a bunch of these this year and gifted all of them. I definitely should make a few for myself. I always need a nice shopper ready to go in the car, or another bag to hold yarn!

If you're looking for an easy way to create more storage for a room, this basket is perfect. It's cute, colorful, and is a statement piece in of itself. It's easy enough to make one for every room, so you can use it to store toys, toiletries, supplies, or even yarn.

The classic market bag - seamless, in the round, and with only one ball of yarn. Be So Bare Yarn is 100% organic cotton, completely made in the USA.

Make you you watch the step by step tutorial video for additional help!
