Whether you’re packing for a trip to the beach, or picking up souvenirs on your adventures, this handy Beachcomber Tote will have room for everything! It’s made from outdoor yarn, which is fade and mildew resistant, with plenty of stretch to accommodate those oversized beach towels.

*Please note: The Beachcomber Tote pattern can be found on my blog for free at https://www.kniftyknittings.com/beachcomber-tote-free-knitting-pattern/. This listing is for the printable ad-free version.

The Beachcomber Tote is knit from the bottom up, starting with a small rectangle. Stitches are picked up around each side, and the body of the tote is then knit in the round. An applied I-cord bind off gives the Beachcomber Tote a clean and sturdy edge, and the addition of grommets keeps the simple rope handles nicely in place. A step-by-step video tutorial is included.

You are welcome to sell items knit from the Beachcomber Tote pattern, I just ask that you give pattern credit to Knifty Knittings and link to www.kniftyknittings.com in any listings. Thank you!
