A French market bag with a flower-tastic twist! While crochet versions of the classic market bag abound, this version is entirely knit - even the flowers! The perfect companion for a day at the beach, picking up fresh loaves of sourdough from the Farmers’ Market or a sweater quantity of yarn from your Local Yarn Store.
