Carrier bags are soooooo last season when it comes to being green and crafty. Who on earth would be been piling their groceries into something with a shop name on the side when you could be chucking your cheese and chopsuey into your Linen Grocery Tote crocheted with your own fair hands?
The Purl Bee, Soho's swish little knitting shop, have come up with a lovely pattern for all your grocery tote needs and, as usual, it's free. Clear text and picture instructions lead you gently by the hook through the whole bag-creating process from the first stitches to handles.
Get practising telling the person at the check out that you have your own bag and don't require one of theirs. Feel free to look a little smug too. It is a lovely bag.
