The Spiral Bottom Market Tote is a durable knit tote that can hold just about anything! The tightly knit spiral pattern on the bottom makes it practical for heavier items, while the mesh pattern easier expands to hold large and awkward items. The Market Tote can go with you anywhere! It folds or rolls up to a very compact size, you can keep it with you to fill with goodies from your local farmer’s market or for any kind of shopping!

This tote is knit from the bottom up, in the round, with the handles knit last.
