Rustic Market Bag (Gå til norsk oppskrift) Crochet mesh bags are a classic, but nowadays these simple market / beach bags, seems to be a popular fashion accessories, as well. When I made my crochet market bag, I wanted that rustic feeling, and decided to use my Springtime Magic Mandala to create a beautiful bottom for the bag and to use a cotton/linen blend yarn. And here it is; My Rustic Market Bag. Hope you'll enjoy the pattern If you prefer a PDF-file, or would like more pictures, you can buy the pattern in my Ravelry store for $1.
