6. Wave Market Bag
The wave stitch is such a perfect pick for this fun crochet market bag. The pattern starts out with a sturdy half double crochet best and then comes the fun part!
The wave stitch uses chains and crochet stitches of different heights to get the lovely and lacey undulating effect that you see. This is one of the cutest crochet market tote bags that I have seen.
