This Simple Market Bag came about easily enough. I’ve been inspired by the arrival of Spring and anticipating the opening of our local Farmers Markets.

The Original Pattern was a generous size and worked in a V-Stitch to please both of us. It was/is a bit rounder in the middle than it is at the ends.

I used a stitch I’ve known for a long time and have used to work things for her before. I don’t remember what it’s called but I call it Kisses. It is made by working 2 DC across each other to create the X (kiss).

Size can be easily adjusted by adding or removing groups of 2 stitches from/to the foundation row.

This pattern was lovingly created by Lori Cheney for the little ones to be published by Crochet Happy

I’ve made dozens of these for friends and family and everybody loves them.

I plan to make additional sizes available from 0-3 mon. thru to adult w/matching scarves
