New FREE Pattern - Crochet Farmer's Market Bag!

Cross-posted from our News Blog!

I know it's out of season, but I was updating the store's free patterns, and heck, the holidays are around the corner in terms of your gift production!  So here is a FREE pattern for you, our Crochet Farmer's Market Bag!   Hope you enjoy!  :-)

Knit Market Bag

We finished the Knit Market Bag in the Sublime Organic Cotton DK. The pattern we used, from lionbrand, was not good and we don't recommend it.  The yarn was great (still is), and we still recommend making a bag for yourself. Here are some free patterns that look better and have been properly vetted:

• string bag
• ilene bag
• elisa's nest tote

So here is how my Crochet Market Bag in Super 10 Cotton worked out! it looks pretty good, but I have not yet tested it on vegetables. In the picture it is comfortably holding 13 skeins of Brown Sheep Co. Lamb's Pride Bulky, so i think it qualifies as big. I'm working on a redux in grey with a smaller hook and different stitch.

I've been working on my next sock doll but I've taken a break before I dress her and giver her a face. Creativity runs in cycles. It's knitted in Regia 4ply design line Kaffe Fassett Landscape Celebration 4355

Liane and I have been working on a top down cropped sweater in Mission Falls 1824 Cotton. We've been holding 2 strands together, so it's going along pretty quickly. I have taken out the bottom seam to lengthen it, because while it looks right on the mannequin it's actually short on me. We made a small but it is proving to be very stretchy and fits me. I think i can block it even bigger if it warrants it.
