The Bellflower Produce Bag is a reusable cotton produce bag featuring sturdy construction and sides adorned with lace leaves and bell-shaped flowers.

This confident-beginner to intermediate pattern is both practical and beautiful, giving you a sustainable alternative to plastic that you’ll enjoy carrying every market day.

HOW THIS BAG IS MADE
• Bag is worked in joined rounds from the bottom up.
• The first 9 rounds create the base of the bag.
• With chains and double crochet stitches, alternating leaves and flowers begin to appear. Lace leaves and bell-shaped flowers continue up the sides of the bag.
• A scalloped brim is added with simple stitches, while creating the holes through which a drawstring can be threaded.
• Add a drawstring to ensure that your loose fruits and veggies stay put. Instructions are given for crocheting one quickly and easily.
