Want to try something new? How about Tunisian crochet? It’s really easy!

This beautiful, sun-colored market bag is crocheted using the basic Tunisian stitch, which is explained in detail in the pattern. Since the pattern doesn’t require any increases or decreases and you don’t have to worry about color changes thanks to the gradient yarn, you can focus entirely on this new technique. This makes the project perfect for crocheting on the go or outside in the garden.
The bag’s shape is created by folding it using the origami technique. The pattern also clearly explains how to fold it, complete with pictures.
The burgundy trim and handle are then finished using regular crochet.

This shopping net holds a lot!
It makes a wonderful gift for Mom, because the net can be used not only for shopping but also as a beach bag. Thanks to the holes, the inside of the bag stays free of sand.
On the outside, a heart pattern and the word "Mama" point to the owner.
The filet technique used to crochet this bag is also well suited for crochet beginners, because you only need to crochet chain stitches and double crochet.
For the pattern, the pattern includes a graphical counting chart as well as a "round by round" description.
