    Default Latest finished project~crochet Market Bag

    This is my latest finished project. It is a crocheted Market Bag to take to the farmer's market or the flea market. I used cotton yarn for it, I had 2 skeins of the dandelion yellow and thought that I had enough but unfortunately as I got the handles I ran out of yarn so I had to use some verigated yarn that had the same yellow in along with lighter yellows and white. It is not what I prefered but it was better than the 50 mile round trip to town to get more of the yellow . It was an easy project and crocheted up really fast.

    This is the bag empty and unstretched.


    This is it with 5 books in it, one was the Encyclopedia of Needlework which is heavy and weighs about 5 pounds. It stretches out wonderfully.
    “Books are the treasured wealth of the world and the fit inheritance of generations and nations.” --Henry David Thoreau
