| Loom Woven Market Bag Reviewed by Jaime Lavergne on 2012-05-23 |

| This is a great bag! I used a baby blue and a pistachio green for a nice summer look. This was my first loom woven project, so I watched the very helpful Lion Brand YouTube channels many times, but it turned out to be simple once you know how to do it! I used the same color strands of yarn for the warp, and two different colors for the weft. I crocheted the pieces together for a stronger seam. Great pattern!
