Eight -Pocket Two-Tone Carryall Tote
Lion Brand® Lion® Cotton
GAUGE: 13 sts = 4" (10 cm) with larger hook BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

| Eight -Pocket Two-Tone Carryall Tote Reviewed by Kimberly Chapman on 2011-12-16 |

This pattern is great! I've made this bag a few times, and have even modified the pattern to get different shapes and sizes. It can be a super simple market bag if you make it taller and leave off the button and pockets. It can also be a messenger bag by adding a flap, leaving off the button, and making only one strap that connects on the sides. Both variations get tons of compliments.
My advice is to experiment and just be patient with the assembly - it will be worth it when it is done!
