Farmer's Market Bag
"This bag has a modern, boho feel and it’s designed to be both sturdy and stretchy to accommodate all of your shopping needs. This bag is a great alternative to a tote and is perfect for outings from shopping at the farmer’s market and grocery store to carrying along snacks on road trips. It also makes a wonderful beach bag to hold towels, sunscreen, anything else you might need. This bag takes a little time to crochet up, but I promise it’s all worth it!"
