Scrap Happy Tote Bag Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Scrap Happy Tote Bag 

Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach of  Posh Pooch Designs

 The Scrap Happy Tote Bag is our first Scrap Happy

 project for 2023. 

 I have been working on it for quite a while.

 I started it with several different

 colors of yarn from my stash, and just did not like

 how it was looking. I then remembered I had some 

Vanna's Choice yarn left from some other projects.

The Vanna's Choice yarn colors and shades all seem

 to work together nicely.

I Love How The tote bag stitched up. I used 2 strands

 of Medium (4) held together and it makes strong tote

 bag, but also a very pretty bag, that love using.

It's strong enough for the Farmers Market, and you will

 have a lovely bag that everyone will love. 

The bag measures about 24 inches around X 14 

inches tall, not including the handle. So it's a really nice

 size for shopping, using as a project bag, or maybe

 your hand bag.
