Argyle Wine Tote – Free Crochet Pattern

Crochet wine totes are great little projects to keep on hand. They make excellent last-minute gifts when you receive an invite to a housewarming party. They also make great wedding gifts. I like to keep a couple different styles made up ahead of time. This way, I always know I have a last minute gift on hand, if needed. The free crochet pattern for the Argyle Wine Tote can be found below, or you can find an ad-free print friendly version on Love Crafts here, Ravelry here, or on Etsy here.

Argyle Hat Chart

HOW TO READ THE CHART ABOVE:

  • Read the chart from right to left, bottom to top.
  • The Red squares indicate when you’ll work a dc.
  • Make sure to work the dc in the front loops of stitches 2 rounds below the current round.
  • The vertical numbers indicate the round you’re on. Begin following the chart and working long dc in round 1 of Argyle Design – Body of Hat.
  • The horizontal numbers represent the stitch number. This stitch pattern is a multiple of 8 stitches.
  • After working Round 17, continue with Round 18 above.
