This is a super fun clutch tote to make and it's the perfect size for just the essentials, however, it's easy enough to size if you want it bigger. It's worked in worsted weight cotton yarn so it goes fast, but I also like that it is a great way to use up some of those scraps. You can add as many or few stripes as you like and place them wherever it pleases you. The handles are crocheted in as part of the clutch but I added some wrapped yarn to give them an interesting look.
This tote features a gorgeous texture that you are sure to love. It takes bit of patience to crochet it up, but I'm sure you'll enjoy the final results. The bag is a fairly nice size, making it great for your summer trips to the beach.

I named this crochet bag pattern the On the Bias Tote Bag, not because of how I worked the design (it's worked in rows), but because of how it appears after it's folded and seamed. The finished bag looks like it was worked on the bias, but the rectangle of the bag is constructed by working back and forth in simple rows. The combination of Lion Brand Yarn’s 24/7 cotton and simple crochet stitches give this crochet market bag its classic appeal. And the addition of a simple macrame pattern at each end of the strap, along with the wooden beads, give it a fun, boho vibe.

The Citrus Twist Tote is made with 4 bright colors of Red Heart Scrubby Smoothie that made me think of… well, citrus!

The Citrus Twist Tote features a two-row repeat that's easy to memorize and works up fast.

Feel free to use a solid color worsted weight yarn to work up this crochet tote bag, or mix it up with a variety of colors.
It's that time of year again when I'm ready to break out the cotton yarn and make myself a dozen different crochet bags. After all, one can never have too many bags, especially tote bags! I consider tote bags to be a summer essential… who am I kidding? I use my crochet tote bags all year round. Why do I historically design new tote bags this time of year? I think it's because I'm being optimistic that, eventually, spring and summer will arrive here in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Maybe it's my way of willing the warmer weather to come, or maybe I just love my growing collection of bags.
