Rustic Market Bag |
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

SvarSlettThank you for the amazing pattern it was easy to follow and I was able to create 4 birthday gifts for my daughters.
SvarSlettI love this pattern! Do you have Instagram? I've posted pics of my make and I've credited you but would love for you to see. Thanks
SvarSlettI would like to buy the PDF but the Ravelry pattern section is not working, I get an error message on all the patterns I try to download. Could I not buy it directly from you?
SvarSlettHi, I don’t understand round 1 instructions, how to dc2tog when there aren’t any stitches to crochet together? Thank you.
SvarSlettIt sounds like you might be trying to decrease instead of dc2tog? In a dc2tog you are making the two new dcs and joining them at the top. Just stop your first dc while you still have 2 loops, make your next dc, and pull your final yo through all 3 loops left at the end, and you have a dc2tog!
SlettHi! I need help understanding the pattern. First thing, I don't understand the use of the "=" signs as in " 1 dc in the ring = (EQUALS?) 1 dc2tog". Does it means that one equals the other or is it used as a coma? example : (12 ch3-sp)
SvarSlettSecondly, what means the parenthese in bold caracter at the end of every steps of the pattern. Is it the result I should be having at the end of the step? Or the next step?
Then, I understand that abreviation ch-sp means chainspace, but what does the number included in the abreviation means, as in ch3-sp??
Thank you for your help. I'm obviously a beginner, but I love this pattern and really wish to make it right.
Hi, I was also confused but I decided to tackle the pattern anyway. Mine looks like the picture after some attempts! So the = sign does mean equal. in the example "1 dc in the ring = 1 dc2tog", the author is just noting that the stitches are the same thing. So don't stitch the 1 dc2tog that is after the equal sign.
SlettFor the (#) at the end of every step, that is the total amount of stitches you should have at the end of the round.
The ch#-sp, that means the size of the chain space. So a single crochet would leave a ch1-sp, double crochet ch2-sp and so on. Hope this all helps!!
Thank you so much! This is helping a lot. Gives me confidence to try the pattern! :)

SlettI. LOVE. THIS. BAG! In these times of quarantine, it's the only pattern I want to make. I got a chance to use this bag and it's awesome. Only made a couple of changes (did slip stitches to the middle of the loop at the start of each type and shortened the bag and handle). Thanks for this pattern 😊
SvarSlettHi there! What a great way to reduce waste from grocery shopping! Do you think this pattern could be adapted to create a smaller bag, and if so, do you have any recommendations on how to accomplish that?
SvarSlettHello! It's a beautiful pattern. Can I sell the bag I make?
SvarSlettHello! It's a wonderful pattern! Once you understand the last stitches in every round it's is easy to follow! Can I sell the finished product, mentioning you as the maker of the pattern of course!
