THE MARKET BAG TUTORIAL

Head to the Farmer's Market in style with this boho-inspired reusable shopping bag! This market bag is eco-friendly AND adorable. I'll be sharing my Market Bag tutorial using jute twine. So grab your crochet gear & let's get started.

MATERials

This project cost me just FOUR DOLLARS to make! The jute Twine I use in the video is from… the Dollar Tree. Head on over to your local dollar store & check to see if they have 3 ply jute twine. You’ll need approximately 4 rolls. If you don’t have access to the Dollar Tree jute, then I recommend 2mm jute twine by Hildi & Jo at Joann. Here’s a link.

Jute twine isn’t for you? No worries! Cotton yarn will work just as well. I recommend Re-Up by Lion Brand because it’s recycled and comes in several beautiful colors. Shop here for cotton.

You’ll also need a tapestry needle & scissors for this project.
