Off to the pool or the farmer’s market? Take along a plant based tote! Horizontal open work lends a “deconstructed” air to this functional market bag that combines a boho vibe with city chic. It’s big enough to hold all your essentials but works up in heartbeat using DK weight yarn. The Fused Market Tote has a fun-to-knit construction that begins at the bottom with a bellybutton cast on, then works its way outward to form a circle. It is worked entirely in the round and finishes with an I-cord upper edge. This little bag is such fun! Make Fused in a ton of colors, then give as gifts!
