I needed a new knitting\/crochet tote bag so I decided to use the yarn for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI am primarily a knitter but I do enjoy Tunisian Crochet, especially the Tunisian Simple Stitch (TSS) and I think it makes a terrific dense fabric just ripe for felting into a purse or tote.  Unlike felted knitting, which results in a smooth fabric, when you felt a fabric made with the TSS, you create a lovely textured fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause I'm a knitter, I approach Tunisian Crochet from a knitter's point of view and the design for my Roomy Knitting \u0026amp; Crochet Tote Bag reflects that. However, if you prefer, you can approach the pattern in the customary way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tote bag is worked up in separate pieces, then sewn together and felted. I added a lovely quilted fabric lining and the opening is secured with hook and loop tape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you've never done the TSS before, I encourage you\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoveCrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56749309624698,"sku":"UPID28969","price":4.33,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/add5a24ab30345e1e4e9a4dd6979ae8518e57567_UPID28969_172855536752025.jpg?v=1775908669","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-au\/products\/roomy-felted-knitting-crochet-tote-bag-crochet-pattern-by-lenas-legacy","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
