Fancy Market Bag ~ Free Crochet Pattern

Free Crochet Pattern
Fancy Market Bag

I love my reusable, eco friendly, market bags, but sometimes they can be so boring.  I wanted a fancy market bag, something that would get a lot of compliments at the market but I also wanted something quick to work up and easy to make.  This market bag fits both criteria.

~Fancy Market Bag~ FREE crochet pattern ~ #cre8tioncrochet

It is easy to work up and you can finish it up in a couple hours.  You can even make it more fancy by adding some cute embellishments.  You’ll find lots of flowers to choose from in the Flower Repository.

I also love fancy little bits on the edge and handles of this market bag.

Notes

  • Pattern is written using my Seamless Rounds.  It is not necessary but if you would like to watch the video or view the written tutorial you can find it HERE.
  • When pattern calls for skipping stitches, the chain does NOT count as a stitch, only count the actual stitches (sc, dc, etc).
  • Chart for this stitch pattern can be found HERE
