Just Eight Retro Daisy Granny Squares For this Tote
This pattern uses just 8 granny squares joined together to make this crochet tote bucket bag style.

After crocheting the squares, two are joined together to make a rectangle. This is repeated with the remaining 6 squares to make four rectangles total.

When all the rectangles are complete, they are laid out in a fan shape and joined together on the side seams. Crochet the strap using single crochet stitches. Weave in the yarn ends and your one-of-a-kind beautiful bag is ready for use.

Materials
Yarn. I used three different colors of Caron Simply Soft yarn for each daisy granny square. Plan on about 150 yards of yarn for each square.
Refer to the photo to see how I alternated these three colors for the background and color of the petals: Gold, Autumn Red, and Pumpkin. For the color of the daisy center I used Dark Sage. On two of the squares in the center, I tried a variegated yarn scrap.
Crochet Hook Size I, 5.5 mm hook.
