This unique and rustic-looking tote bag has a satisfying shape thanks to its rounded base. Take it along with you to picnics, the beach or playdates and see just how much it can carry! I love its latticework effect - thanks to a clever adaptation of moss stitch - and the marbled look of the yarn held double.
