Classic Tote Bag ~

Free Crochet Pattern

This fun Classic Tote Bag is a great way to keep items organized and in one place.  It is light weight and sturdy.  It will make a great charity donation as a treatment bag to transport the items needed.  As it is a fairly good size and has plenty of room to hold a small wrap, hat, water bottle, pen or pencil, notepad, coloring book, or just about anything that will be needed.  You can make it in one or more colors to brighten someone’s day. Enjoy!
