There are many great things about spring; but one of my favorite things the warming weather indicates is the opening of the local Farmer’s Market. I love walking around the booths and looking at all of the things grown within a short distance of where I live. It’s a great place to pick up some really interesting ingredients, as well as inspiration for your next project.
One of the most practical project ideas suggested by the Farmer’s Market experience is a tote bag. Yes, a cute, simple knit tote bag is one of the best things you can make to rock your local market. Most Farmer’s Markets are more enjoyable when you bring your own bags, especially if you plan to make multiple purchases from several different stalls, and nothing says “sustainable” like a hand-knit bag.
We’ve collected an assortment of durable, yet stylish patterns that will make going to the market or grocery store a real treat. Popping your purchases into a knitted bag is one of the best ways to show off your fabulous knitting skills.
