Product Description
I absolutely love designing market/tote bags as I love using them myself. Not just because it’s eco-friendly but it looks super cute too! So enjoy my newest design, I hope you’ll find it as useful as me.
The pattern itself is using some different stitches (cluster stitches, stitching in the 3rd loop of hdc, sc, hdc, dc) to create a nice, modern but textured look.

Laica Market Bag by K.A.M.E. Crochet
Project Overview
The Laica Market Bag is a practical, colorful crochet tote designed by Krisztina Anna Matejcsok-Edomer of K.A.M.E. Crochet. This downloadable pattern creates a structured market bag perfect for shopping, farmers market trips, or everyday carrying. The finished bag features a two-color design that adds visual interest while maintaining a functional, spacious silhouette.
Finished Dimensions
- Bag body: 12 inches (30.5 cm) wide by 14.5 inches (37 cm) tall
- Handles: 18 inches (46 cm) long by 1.25 inches (3 cm) wide
Craft and Technique
This project is executed entirely in crochet, making it accessible to crafters with intermediate-level skills. The pattern is classified as Advanced Beginner/Intermediate difficulty, meaning it builds on fundamental crochet techniques while introducing slightly more complex shaping or stitch combinations. The two-color construction likely involves color changes and possibly stranded or tapestry crochet techniques to create the coordinated palette without excessive yarn tails.
Materials and Yarn Specifications
The Laica Market Bag is designed to be worked with aran weight (worsted weight) yarn on a 5 mm (H) crochet hook. The pattern calls for 100% cotton yarn, which provides structure, breathability, and durability ideal for a market bag that will carry groceries and produce.
- Color 1: 211 yards / 194 meters (125 grams)
- Color 2: 118 yards / 109 meters (70 grams)
The designer used Paintbox Yarns 100% Recycled Cotton Worsted in Meadow Green for Color 1 and Peachy for Color 2, though the pattern accommodates any aran or worsted weight 100% cotton yarn. The use of recycled cotton yarn reflects an eco-conscious approach to fiber crafting.
Additional Supplies
- Yarn needle for weaving in ends
- Scissors
