Pink! I love pink and I love the lovely feminine look of this bag. Its too pretty to use as a market bag. I would like to make this and use it as a purse. I know it would get a lot of compliments. All my girlfriends love pink as much as I do. The directions look easy enough so maybe I will make one for all of us.

What a great looking tote bag! It has a lot going for it a solid bottom without a lot of open mesh, so things don't fall out of it it's made of cotton yarn so it can be washed (I wash all my shopping totes), and you can adjust the strap lengths. Great gift idea too!
