jOLige, aka Farmer's Market Bag

 

For those of you that speak Kannada, you know what I mean by jOLige (ಜೋಳಿಗೆ)!  This was made a back in 2011 for M.  So glad to see that it is still heavily used.  It expands well to fit everything she throws in there, be it for a sleepover at a friend's house or a shopping trip.  The cotton yarn makes for a sturdy bag that shrinks back to its original size when it comes out of the dryer.  This easy pattern was available from the knitomatic website.  I crocheted another one of these last fall for a niece who loved it when she saw this picture.
