Modern Granny Tote

"The Modern Granny Tote is a fun twist on the granny square bag! Each small square motif is crocheted separately and sewn together. Then, the handle is constructed using the thermal stitch, a variation of single crochet that makes for a thicker, sturdier fabric for straps that won't stretch out. Techniques used in this pattern are the magic ring, chain, slip stitch, single crochet, double crochet, and double crochet clusters. Materials needed are cotton DK weight yarn, a size G (4.0mm) crochet hook, yarn needle and scissors. There is a video tutorial to walk you through constructing the square and photo tutorial for the straps. "
