I love making tote bags. Easy and practical, usually just simple rectangles. With time, I figured out quite a few sewing tips for making bags. And sometimes, those simple rectangle forms evolve into something a little different. Like this time. Dear readers, meet the brand new ALLina Tote Pattern. You can have it all, the function and the design - ALL-IN-A TOTE. (Pun intended!)

PATTERN FOR TOTE BAG - Tons Of Uses!

This tote has a multitude of uses. This All-in-a-tote will make your grocery shopping a breeze (sew the large size!). One handle will make it so easy for you to just grab and go. Hung over the wrist, it will make your grocery shopping easier.

And it will keep your crochet project tidy in your own home. It stays open, making it easy to see what's inside. Keep your latest crochet project and all the supplies close at hand and ready for you!

You can use it as a catch-all in your hallway and prettify your home while getting more storage space. Or think picnic basket, project bag, nappies storage, and much more.
