A friend of mine, a breast cancer survivor, commented “I’ve only ever seen two “pink ribbon” type projects that I liked, and they were both yours. Yours aren’t cloying!“

I appreciated the comment, and in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, here’s my Pink Ribbon Tote as a free pattern. It’s done in Tunisian crochet, on a large hook, with a handle done in wide double i-cord. Don’t be scared by the crochet thing - THIS IS DEAD EASY! It’s also fast, fast, fast.

The other pattern (a scarf) will be available here as soon as I have time :)

There are tutorials for Tunisian crochet widely available online, check out Stitch Diva and NexStitch

The pattern takes 4 skeins (each a different color) of Lamb’s Pride Bulky or Worsted
