Farmers Market Bag

"This bag has a modern, boho feel and it’s designed to be both sturdy and stretchy to accommodate all of your shopping needs. This bag is a great alternative to a tote and is perfect for outings from shopping at the farmer’s market and grocery store to carrying along snacks on road trips. It also makes a wonderful beach bag to hold towels, sunscreen, anything else you might need. This bag takes a little time to crochet up, but I promise it’s all worth it!"

This is a fantastic design for a market bag. I love how its woven closely at the bottom and looser at the top, and the way the strap is constructed is absolutely perfect. No worries about the strap breaking on this one! The bag is worked using two strands of yarn together so its also super durable. I have some undyed cotton that would be perfect for this bag but you could even work it with heavy string.
