Notes from the Designer:

The Bodega bag is both practical and beautiful! It works up to just the right size for use at the market, the library, or anywhere you need to take it. The Enduring Worsted yarn used to crochet this beautiful bag is both sturdy and gorgeously soft, so it’s the perfect choice for a bag that will hold up to lots of use, while also being lovely to touch and hold against your skin. This pattern uses one skein of yarn and is worked from the top down, so you never have to worry about running out of yarn. You can also continue with additional rows if you want a longer bag.

• The sample shown used 140 yards (128 m) total.
• When working the chains, keep your stitches relaxed and loose. Don’t work them too tightly.
• Bag is worked from the top down, starting with the handles.
