Go To Market Bag—Knitting Pattern

$3.99

I designed this pattern when a friend asked me to knit some bags to sell at the local farmer’s market. As I looked through patterns, none were quite right. I wanted something easy, no lace patterns to keep track of, yet still cute and functional. This bag is the result. It has a base for greater capacity and is knit entirely in garter stitch. By changing to a larger needle size an openwork feel is achieved without any difficult lace patterns. It is seamless, except for a small strap seam at the top. It would be good for an advanced beginner, but still fun for an experienced knitter.

Hi all! I’m Faith, and I love to knit! That hobby turned into a love of designing. My goal is to design patterns that are fun and easy to knit, even with all the distractions of life going on around you. So, grab a cup of your favorite beverage and have a look around. I’m so glad you stopped by.

More about Distracted Knits:
Faith Schmidt designs under the name DistractedKnits for a very good reason. With nine children, some grown and some still at home, there’s always something going on! This has led her to design patterns that are interesting to knit but are also easy to memorize and “read”, in the case of one of those all-to-frequent interruptions.
