Lettuce bag


The new Marie Claire Idees has so many wonderful ideas. This crocheted lettuce bag is stopping my heart. You crochet the leaves and then sew them together! Think of the farmers' market bags you could make using all those wonderful hand-dyed greens!

I've GOT to have that pattern! What a beautiful job you did! It looks good enough to eat. :-)

Is the pattern in the magazine or in a book?

Thanks!

Oh that's just crazy. In a good way. Reminds me of that knitted bag you were knocking off at one point--remember? Only more vegetal.

I've been looking at the Lotta printing book in the bookstore. Wouldn't my loop of linen fabric (8 feet long) make a great table runner with Lotta printing on it? I might try to arrange a printing party in Philly sometime! xo Kay

That is pretty cool. Very cool I like the idea of making it a larger bag in which to carry produce or, say, knitting projects... all my market bags turn into knitting bags...
