Ideal for carrying that bottle of water and magazine to the beach, or just grabbing on your way out of the house for wallet and keys, this bag is bold, bright and crochet.

This is a PDF pattern for a contemporary crochet tote bag. It uses tapestry crochet techniques, and if you haven’t tried it before this is an excellent, beginners level pattern and includes links to an online tutorial, so there’s nothing stopping you!

It’s written using US terminology, even though I’m from the UK and is suitable for all skill levels.
