I made these large cotton market bags for my daughters-in (or out of)-law for Christmas.
They're BIG - about 40 inches. They will hold a monster load of groceries and more apples than a person could lift. They are washable and they will last For-eh-ver. (Say "forever" like they did in the movie "The Sandlot")
I loved making them. I will make a lot more. I need some, my sister needs one, a friend needs one. The list goes on and on.
I bought the yarn on sale. Each market bag cost approximately $20 each. It is an easy stitch and a simple pattern so I was able to complete one in only about two days worth of free time. It was great... I just started watching my own private Parenthood marathon on Netflix and before I knew it I was caught up on one of my favorite TV show and I had these three fantastic bags to show for it. I love them and I hope TheGirls do too.
Here is the pattern if you would like to make some for the farmers market shoppers in your life...
Or if you just need a legitimate reason to sit on the couch and watch Parenthood like I did...
Enjoy!
