Name: Summer Vibe Market Bag Kit | Crochet Tote Pattern | Eco Twist
Brand: Queensland
Price: 50 AUD
Availability: InStock

The Summer Vibe Market Bag Kit is a perfect project for makers who want an open, breathable tote for market runs and beach days, worked entirely in crochet.

Summer Vibe is a market bag designed by Jacqueline van Dillen, built from a single-crochet base worked in the round, then finished in an open V-stitch pattern that gives the bag its mesh-like texture. The straps are worked as an extension of the body itself, built up from two halves and joined at the top, so there is no separate strap construction or sewing required. Worked in Eco Twist, our plant-based recycled cotton, linen and EcoVero™ viscose blend, the yarn's speckled colourway and gentle sheen suit the bag's relaxed, open structure.

What's Inside the Kit

2 x 100g balls of Eco Twist in your selected colourway
The Summer Vibe pattern (printed)

Not included:

3.5mm (US E-4) crochet hook

Designed for Makers Like You

Summer Vibe suits confident beginner and intermediate crocheters comfortable with basic stitches (chain, single crochet, double crochet) and following a repeating V-stitch pattern. The base is worked flat in rounds with corner increases, then the body continues in a straightforward V-stitch repeat, with the straps being the only part of the pattern that asks for closer row-by-row attention.

It is especially suited to makers who love:

Open, mesh-style crochet with real breathability
Projects that build the whole piece, straps included, without separate seaming
Practical, everyday totes rather than decorative pieces
Plant-based yarns with a soft, natural drape
A relatively quick make that still delivers a finished, useful result

Spun with Purpose

Eco Twist is 45% viscose (EcoVero™), 35% recycled cotton and 20% linen, spun in Italy. The EcoVero™ process is a lower-impact way to produce viscose compared to conventional methods. You can read more about it here.

This yarn is:

Suited to structured crochet work
Made with EcoVero™ viscose, recycled cotton and linen
Softly marled with a gentle sheen rather than bold variegation
Breathable, with a relaxed, easy-wearing finish
Suited to makers who want a plant-based yarn with real texture

Made to Be Made

The Summer Vibe Market Bag Kit is a beautiful choice for:

Market days, the beach or anywhere an open, breathable tote earns its keep
Confident beginner crocheters ready for a project beyond a simple square
A practical, plant-based make that sees regular use rather than sitting on a shelf
A gift for a maker who prefers useful pieces over decorative ones

If you have been looking for a market bag that is genuinely useful as well as beautiful, Summer Vibe is a considered one to make.

Your Next Mindful Make

Summer Vibe moves quickly once the base is established, and the V-stitch body works up in a steady, repeating rhythm that makes for easy, portable crochet.

It is a strong choice for makers who want a practical, warm-weather project that delivers a finished bag they will actually carry.
