The Cari-Rose Beach Bag is a written crochet pattern with video tutorial support, worked in two contrasting colors of worsted-weight cotton from the bottom up. It features a textured design with an accent stripe, and a removable plastic base insert that keeps the bag sturdy and makes it fully washable.

Join the Make Along
The GoSadi Make Along kicks off July 14. Grab your yarn, snag your copy, and stitch along with the community.
GoSadi is a brand new fiber arts platform that I absolutely love. They are hosting Make Alongs this summer on their new Community Site. We’re in on the ground floor of this amazing opportunity! Here’s the scoop from GoSadi:
GoSadi is the go-to hub for knitters and crocheters to easily discover, organize, and save patterns from Ravelry, Etsy, designer websites, yarn company sites, and more. Whether searching for specific projects or browsing new designs, GoSadi lets users create “playlists” of their favorite patterns and follow designers to see their latest work. GoSadi simplifies pattern searching so users can focus on creating. Plus, makers can showcase their finished projects on the Makers Landing Page! -GoSadi Maker Page
