Create your own crochet market bag with a raffia look using ribbon yarn. This free pattern lets you whip up a cute tote that resembles natural raffia yarn but costs less. The yarn is a blend of polyester and rayon/viscose, making it robust, washable, and durable. It’s great for home decor projects and accessories, with a suede-like finish for a natural matte look and pleasant touch. Crocheting with this yarn is easy; it maintains tension and creates a strong, lightweight fabric with a nice drape. The free crochet pattern from My Poppet Makes features a classic mesh design, making the bag quick to work up and flexible – ideal for shopping or as a stylish beach tote. Even beginners can easily make this versatile tote bag using basic stitches like single and double crochet.
