The opening of the farmers’ market signals spring for many of us. Visit yours in style with this hemp tote that combines leno and plain weave for lacy holes to let your veggies and fruit breathe. Weave a strap using the same hemp and you’ll have a machine-washable bag that is both useful and pretty.

In anticipation of the spring opening of her local farmers‘ market, Yvonne designed a lacy bag with a sturdy plain-weave bottom section to safely hold fresh produce. She wove the handles using the same hemp but with a tighter beat for long-lasting wear. This all-hemp bag is machine washable, making it just that much more useful.
