PATTERN NOTES
Weave in loose ends as work progresses.
Join with slip stitch as indicated unless otherwise stated.
Body of Tote is worked in back loops from written instructions and Chart in joined rounds from the bottom up around a
rectangular base. Each round begins at center back of Tote. Follow all rounds on Chart from right to left; each square
represents 1 single crochet.
When changing color within round, carry and work over color not in use on back side of piece until needed. Do not cut yarn or
fasten off unless otherwise stated. Take care to maintain even tension so carried yarn does not affect gauge.
Handle Band is worked in continuous rounds; do not join at end of round unless otherwise stated. Place marker on first stitch and move up as each round is completed.
