The Sanibel Tote Bag pattern makes a perfect bag for your next beach vacation! It is crocheted with two strands of size 3 cotton yarn in the classic moss stitch. The nautical stripes are created with self-striping yarn and the easy stitch pattern makes this a fast project. The bag can be finished with a lining and bottom reinforcement if desired (instructions included) and instructions are also given for the decorative tassel. The yarn used for this pattern is Caron Cotton Ripple Cakes available at Michaels stores.

PLEASE NOTE: The solid color used in the photos has been discontinued. All the solid colors are discontinued. Since the original bag was made with two strands of size 3 yarn, you can substitute a single strand of any size 4 (worsted weight) yarn.
