French Market Bag

I like the concept of ecofriendly, and seeing how people mentioned use cotton mesh bag is better then a plastic bag made me want to own one too. One of the popular mesh bag I've seen is the ikea mesh bag, it only cost $7 for 2, which is not expensive. However since ikea is locked down, and I got some free time and extra yarns, I want to make one for my own instead. The cost, yes, is more expensive then the one in ikea, but it's handmade and it has better quality, the yarn is made in Italy, and the craft in made by ME!~

If you know how to crochet, even you are not an expert with crochet, this is not hard. I took my time to make this, I spent only 30min- an hour to do this before going to bed, so it took couple weeks for me to finish for project. But if you are hardcore, perhaps you can finish this in 3 days. The following link is the pattern I follow:

Her project is very popular, I saw many people used her pattern to make their bag, well, so am I now!~

For material, I used 2 balls of cotton yarn that I bought back in Italy. Each ball is 50g-180m, color cream, made in Italy, Brand GPTEX by Arvier. The finished project is now hanging in my door with all my remaining yarns. I'm very satisfied.
