The Juneberry Crochet Tote Bag is a one-of-a-kind accessory crocheted all from scrap yarn, held in two strands; a mercerized cotton base plus a kaleidoscope of leftover cotton and acrylics. Each stitch is a swirl of color, and the bag is completed with sturdy leather straps and snap closure. Perfect for summer outings, errands, or a splash of color on your daily walk. The pattern includes helpful instructions on adding a lining to your bag.

Finished tote dimensions: 16” wide x 12” high.

Skill Level: Easy Beginner including helpful guidance on optional bag lining.
