Lattice Market Bag Crochet Pattern
Looking for a stylish and functional bag you can use all summer long? The Lattice Market Bag Crochet Pattern is the perfect crochet project! This bag looks intricate, but it’s much easier than it looks! This pattern starts with a sturdy circular base and transitions into a beautiful lace design that gives the bag an airy, elegant look—perfect for trips to the farmers market, beach days, or everyday errands. Whether you’re new to crochet or a seasoned maker, you’ll love how quickly this project works up and how versatile the finished bag is.
Choosing Your Yarn
For this bag, I used WeCrochet Dishie cotton yarn. Because crocheted market bags have a tendency to stretch, I wanted to use a strong cotton. This yarn does the job! Any cotton yarn would work. Cotton yarn is an excellent choice for a market bag because it’s strong, durable, and holds its shape well—even when carrying heavy items. It’s also naturally breathable and absorbent, making it ideal for warm weather and everyday use. Plus, cotton is machine washable, so your bag is easy to clean after a trip to the market or a day at the beach. With its sturdy texture and long-lasting quality, cotton yarn ensures your handmade bag will be both beautiful and practical.

Thank you. I am learning to make beanies but this is definitly on my list to learn
Hi I’m working the market bag is it 108 stitches in each round ? I seem to be getting bigger and bigger each round I’m confused
Same here! Then, I watched her video. She skips some DC, but it doesn’t say to skip these DC in Round 12!!! I had to do a lot of ripping out!
Where is the video please!?!?! Mine kept getting bigger and I just ripped out half my work. : (

Hi! I am working on this but am confused on round 11. After I do the dc chain 2, I am supposed to the chain 5 space and then the next part seems confusing as I have a single crochet there and another chain 5. Am I skipping stitches here? Any advice would prefer appreciated. Thanks.
Hi! After the ch 2, sc in the ch 5 space, ch 2, then skip the sc and work in the next dc 🙂
But there is a chain 2, sc, chain 5, sc, chain 2 before you reach the next set of double crochet. Is it supposed to be that large of a jump?
Hi! There isn’t a chain 5 in round 11, you sc into the ch5 from the previous round
I am also confused with 11 round. It seems the stitches in round 10 and those in 11 don’t coincide. Any help is greatly appreciated
Hi! In round 11 you will dc in each dc across the shell with a ch-1 in between each dc. Then skip the ch-2. Skip the sc. Ch 2 and sc in the ch-5 space. Skip the sc and skip the ch-2. Repeat that around. Hope that helps!
Thank you! I would love a video for this 🙂
Hi! Sorry, I don’t have a video for this pattern
When is the bag supposed to start curbing? I’m on row 14 and it looks like a big frisbee. What am I doing wrong?
Hi! It might take a few more rounds 🙂 The beginning circle is pretty big, so it will take a bit before it tightens up
It’s still a frisbee, and I’m on round 18…is that right? What round should it start curling into a basket?
I think I’m doing something wrong, I’m on round 18, and it’s still flat…is that right? What round should it start curling into a basket? I’ve already taken it apart and put it back together.
Hi! I’m not sure. Can you send me a picture? hookedonhomemadehappiness@gmail.com
youtube does just search lattice market tote and it pops up and makes it much more understandable
Cute pattern! How tall is the bag supposed to be?
I’m having a lot of issues with this pattern… On row 13, I ended up with a count of 138 dc. Pretty sure it was supposed to be 108. The way the pattern is written, I get really lost with whether I’m supposed to skip something or include it. Like when it says to “*(2 dc in next ch 2 space, dc in dc) three times, 2 dc in next ch 2 space, dc in between next 2 dc*” on row 13, that means you would be repeating before you get to the end of the repeat from the last round. Unless I misunderstood it even more… I am not a beginner crocheter and have made pretty complicated pieces… Something about this one I just can’t get right at all.
I’m having exactly the same issue. Also, looking at the photos, there seems to be a step missing completely.
Starting in the repeat you will (2 dc in the ch-2 space, dc in next dc) repeat this 3 times. You should have 1 more ch-2 space left across the shell. 2 dc in ch-2 space. Skip the next dc and Dc in between the next 2 dc and skip the next dc. Then you should be in the first ch-2 space of the next shell
Watch her video. It’s very helpful.
Hi Breann… I love this bag (Lattice Market Bag) it is working up great so far… I am on Round 11, the pattern reads ” ….. four times, dc in next, “…. into what (which stitch) am I to dc…? the ch 2? I bought this pattern on Etsy and it reads the same as the free one on the blog…. Thank you so much, I have made lots of your patterns and I love them… 🙂
Nevermind Breann… I figured it out… duh…. this is what happens when I stay up too late crocheting…. 🙂 thank you…
Ok 🙂 awesome!
I actually have the same question
Hello Breann,
I am having trouble with row 11. It is not working the way the pattern is written. I read all of the comments and in one you said ” Hi! After the ch 2, sc in the ch 5 space, ch 2, then skip the sc and work in the next dc ” referring to row 11. Now I am really confused. I really like the design,
do you have a revision, chart, pictures or video to help me figure it out? I’ve been crocheting for years, but this one has me stumped. Thank you in advance.
Hi! Sorry, I don’t have a video or chart for this pattern
Awesome, easy to follow & I love the wavy stitch pattern. It came out beautiful. Thanks!
Yay!! Thank you so much!!
Hi Breann, can you please tell me what size ounces or grams the skeins of yarn are for the lattice bag (or total ounces used) as we don’t get Lily sugar n cream where I live? Tnx.
Hi! The skeins are 2.5 oz 🙂
hi 🙂 You said 3 skeins of the Lily Sugar and Cream yarn, but there are two different sizes of skeins…can you give a total yardage amount?
Thank you
Hi! I used the 100g skeins
I loved this project! The bag came out beautiful!
I found this pattern and just love the bag. This is my first project without a video tutorial and after counting and recounting , I finally have the patterns down and it’s working up great! Thank you!!
Yay! Great job!
Hi Breann! I am stuck on row 10. When I get to the last three stitches I’m in the middle of the repeated pattern. 108 stitches -3= 105. With 20 stitches in the repeated pattern that only allow doing it 5.25 times. I must be confusing something! Thanks!
Hi! The pattern repeat has 12 stitches 🙂 *skip 3 stitches (3 stitches), 5 dc in next (1 stitch), ch 2, skip 3 stitches (3 stitches), sc in next (1 stitch), ch 5, skip 3 stitches (3 stitches), sc in next (1 stitch), ch 2*
Hope that helps!!
