Use this colorful tote as a casual beach or shopping
accessory or to carry extra items to work. Choose vibrant
colors for a casual look, subdued shades for professional life,
or make two bags in different colors. The tile-like surface
design is timeless and chic.

Worked in two colors, the bag features a Spike stitch worked
into a stitch 3 rows below. The front and back of the tote are
worked in one large rectangular piece. Side panels are then
added and slip stitched together.

Two options for bag handles are given—they can be a pair
of store-bought handles placed on both front and back, or
one crocheted handle can be worked from one side panel to
the other.
