The Market Shopper


 
Last week my Market Shopper pattern was featured in the latest issue of Mollie Makes Magazine (issue 42). It's a roomy summer bag, perfect not only for my morning visits to the farmer's market, but also doubles as a great beach bag.

It has a drawstring top (which you can't see very well in the magazine photos) that makes it a little more secure when holding any valuables. 

I'm posting a few pics I took myself which show it in a little more detail.

 

 I used my all time favourite crochet yarn, Cotton8 (amazingly soft, pure cotton that comes in an astonishing number of colours!) from Scheepjeswol. Scheepjeswol yarns are widely available in the Benelux and available exclusively through Deramores in the UK (also with worldwide shipping).

    Ah I love that basket! The ribbon sets it off perfectly and don't get me started on how fabulous Cotton 8 is ;-) Mx

    Hello from the United States! I've searched all over and cannot find Mollie Makes here! None of my local stores carry this publication. Is this only available in the UK? Beautiful bag design. You are very talented!

      Hi Katie,
      Thanks for your lovely comment :)
      I'm afraid the magazine is the only place you can get my pattern, there is a digital version of the magazine which can be purchased via the app store tho!
      Good luck :)
