This cute crochet boho bag is so cute and simple to make with this free pattern!
The crochet tote bag is worked up in a simple triangle shape then folded and sewn to create the pockets! This is a great pattern to make in vibrant colors and a good pattern for a confident beginner. It’s such a easy yet cute design that gives you a great bag with 2 large pockets! Great to use as a market bag and fun to make in different colors. Fringe is then added to complete the look. This free crochet bag pattern is so much fun to make! A great crochet project to make, great for the warm weather.
The triangle measures 45″ across the top and 23 inches from the middle to end middle point.
The strap measures 22″ X 1.5″.
Larger items would be a good fit for this bag. This free crochet pattern is the perfect size for everyday wear and the beach. The pockets are large but small items can poke through unless you line the bag. If you choose to line it, I would recommend doing so before you fold the bag together. Be sure to leave an inch or so along the outer edge so you can add the fringe.
