Market bags make great gifts that are beautiful and useful! Many of us love to crochet through summer. A crochet market bag makes a great gift.

They’re especially useful if you visit the farmers market or want to replace plastic bags for shopping at the grocery store.

As a maker I enjoying gifting my handmade items, I’m sure you can relate. I designed a series of crochet tote bags to gift to my sons’ teachers for end of year gifts.

I made so many that I’m still sharing the patterns with you. If you love crochet totes {and variety} the links for the other crochet bags I’ve published so far are down below.

The Coastal Sun Tote makes for a fabulous scrappy project. With different stitches in repeated sections it’s easy to change colors.

I love the combination of teal and yellow in this one, with a little bit of the print thrown in at the transitions. This bag pattern may be a great stash buster if you have odds and ends of cotton yarn.

The best thing about making your own bag is that you can make it the perfect size. Want it bigger, add more rows. Prefer it smaller, then shorten it up.
