I stopped by my local farmers market last Saturday to pick up some delicious Colorado peaches. I was so excited about these peaches that I forgot my reusable bags at home and had to use a plastic bag instead. This motivated me to crochet a cute market bag that I could keep in my car and have ready for future trips to the farmers market. When I was looking for a good pattern, I came across so many amazing market bags. All the patterns on this list are quick, easy, and free!
1. Granny Market Bag by Zeens and Roger
This market bag uses the granny stitch, which is such a nice and easy stitch. You really get into a groove with the granny stitch and each row goes by so fast. One thing to note about this pattern is that it’s written in UK terms.
2. Wave Market Bag by Heart Hook Home
The wave pattern on this bag is gorgeous! I would use a contrasting color on the mesh rows to make the waves stand out even more.
3. Speedy V-Stitch Market Bag by Loops and Love Crochet
If you’re a beginner crocheter looking for an easy project with thorough instructions, this pattern is for you! The written pattern is very detailed, and contains links to tutorials for crocheting in the round and making the bag’s handles. There’s also a video tutorial that walks you through the entire pattern.
4. Color Block Market Bag by Mushrump
This bag would make the perfect gift. My mom and I love to go to farmers markets together, and she would be so happy if I made us matching market bags.
5. Eco Crochet Market Tote by Loops and Threads
At 12″ wide by 13″ tall, this is the smallest market bag on this list. Even though it’s smaller than the other bags, it can still hold plenty of items.
6. Pacific Blues by DROPS Design
The last pattern was the smallest bag on this list, and this one is the biggest! It measures 29″ wide by 29″ tall, but the way the pattern is written makes it easy to make the bag any size you’d like. You crochet a square according to the pattern’s diagram, then repeat the last two rows of the diagram until it’s the size you want.
7. 2 Hour Market Bag by CrochetDreamz
I love the bright teal color on the bottom of this market bag. The geometrical pattern to this bag screams art deco. This pattern has both written instructions and a video tutorial.
8. Lily Sugar’n Cream Market Bag
This market bag has a super simple design, perfect for showing off your favorite variegated yarn. My favorite thing about this bag is the wide straps. They’re nice and sturdy, and you won’t have to worry about them stretching out.
I hope you liked this list of quick and easy free crochet market bags. Be sure to leave a comment if you make any of these bags!
