Not an easy pattern

I’m a beginner+ and this was intermediate. I thought after tearing it down several times I would finally be able to complete it but after row 9 the next set of rows (6-9) would get more and more shorter. As you repeat the PS3tog stitches it draws it in more and more. Not sure if that’s right or not so I ripped out a last time and gave up. Looking for something else to use the yarn on.

Gotta love Two of Wands!

Very creative and beautiful tote design! The added chart comes in handy in this pattern, and I liked that Lion brand emails you when the designer updated the pattern with an edit!

Very pretty pattern

I like that the flower pattern of this market bag makes it stand out from the rest of the mesh market bags. The yarn is so soft I love the muted color of the purple. I bought the kit and cannot wait to start crocheting this bag.

Gorgeous!

I’m so excited to have this for farmer market outings! Such a fun design and wonderful color choices.
I haven’t started the pattern yet, but I’ve made a lot of ToW’s designs and I find her patterns so comprehensive.

There are SO MANY tote designs out there, but the Gardenia Market Tote is unique because of a really soft and beautiful motif of flowers. The top border and straps look like they can take the weight of everything you need for a study, yoga or shopping session without stretching to the ground.
