It’s so important that we support fellow crochet artists.

I’m a big fan of the orange slice version myself, I’ve made six already as well as two lemons. Every person I’ve gifted them to has been in absolute AWE over the way the bag folds out of this amazing looking orange slice. The closure makes it all the better and always impresses. This pattern really is perfect for anyone looking for some inspiration for their next project or if you’re trying to decide what to crochet for your friends and family these holidays.

Don’t want to make it yourself or not a crocheter? No worries! You can actually buy ready-made Citrus Mesh Fruit Market Bags on the creators Etsy store!
