Sierra Market Bag Pattern

Sharing is caring!

Introducing the delightful Sierra Market Bag Pattern! This round crochet market bag is the perfect addition to your handmade collection, promising practicality with a dash of style.

The Sierra Market Bag Pattern relies primarily on two fundamental stitches – the double crochet stitch and the half double crochet stitch. Cotton yarn is the recommended yarn to use for this pattern. Known for its durability and strength, cotton will ensure your bag withstands the weight of your groceries or daily essentials while maintaining its shape. But other types of yarn can also be used such as acrylic, just keep in mind that the bag may stretch out more if using a synthetic material such as acrylic.
