Currently in testing mode is the Crochet Tuck-It Tote I designed, a project that transforms from one thing to another. It's a market tote bag that opens up, allowing you to shop with ease.
There are two handles on this. A long one for when you are shopping and a short one for when the bag is tucked into a clutch-sized bag.
The Journey Members on our YouTube Channel have been invited to test this design before it can go to the next step. Video support has already been created for this design, so the Journey Members can double-check my work, and the tutorials will eventually be made public when ready.
When the bag is empty, it can fold into itself to reduce its size and be easier to carry.

Future of This Project
The project will be handed over to Yarnspirations for the final design of their pattern catalog. It has to be fully tested and go through their operations before it goes public. It will take time to go through the steps.

Yarn Requirements
I used Lily Sugar'n Cream in Super Size format of 113 g/4 oz, 184 meters/200 yards. However, if you are using regular-size Lily Sugar'n Cream (71 g/2.5 oz, 109 meters/120 yards), you will need a different number of balls.
Original Colouring in Super Size Version
- 1 ball = Hot Orange
- 1 ball = Red
- 1 ball = Beach Glass
If you are using the regular-size balls, you will definitely need 2 of each.
You will be using a 4 mm / G/6
Sizing: Body Bag. When Opened Up: 14" tall x 13" Diameter. When collapsed, the back is 8.5" diameter x 4" thick.
