Welcome to VTNS (Vintage Textile and Needlework Sellers) Fan Freebie Friday!

Today’s vintage crochet pattern is not only great to use for shopping but for storing onions, potatoes and other produce in your pantry. The netting feature will let air circulate.

The pattern uses a size 7 crochet hook and JP Coats Knit-Cro-Sheen Cotton Crochet Thread. This bag is done in red, but there are many other colors you could choose from.

The shopping bag folds down so that it can tuck in to the corner of your purse to have handy for that spur of the moment shopping trip. Best of all these are reusable so you’ll use less of those plastic grocery bags.

No PDF file for this one. You can simply click on it and print it out or at the very bottom of this post you’ll find a green PRINT button you can use. Also be sure to Pin It to refer to later on.
