The knitted grocery bag pattern in the above image was knitted in cotton, making it easy wash and care, but if durability isn’t of concern and you can imagine this pattern in a more exotic fiber try one of the bamboo yarns.

Bamboo yarns are now available in almost every country, one we love is Lincraft “Bamboozle”.




The colours are vibrant and easy wash. A word of warning however, this bamboo yarn isn’t suitable for a first time knitter. Bamboozle has very little twist to the yarn, you have to be very careful to knit the whole thread/strand.

Nevertheless, bamboo yarn is worth considering by an experienced knitter.

Ready to knit this grocery bag pattern? I guarantee you’ll love your finished tote whether you choose cotton or bamboo....

If you are an experienced knitter this pattern is a breeze.

If you’re concerned about attaching the handles don’t worry our knitting pattern contains complete instructions including photographs, making it easy to understand how to knit and attach the handle for a neat, professional finish.


However, if you are a beginner knitter don’t be put off, knit the tote in cotton and use the included links to our free knitting lessons and how-to instructions for all facets of this pattern and its “finishing off”.

We’ve catered to both Australian and International knitters with this pattern by including yarn substitutions and both metric and imperial measurements.
