Every Saturday and Sunday morning from May through December, you can stroll Portland’s downtown waterfront and shop the iconic Saturday Market. This vibrant hodgepodge of handmade art, crafts, jewelry, food, and more is definitively Portland. Capture some of that Saturday Market exuberance (and probably some new purchases, as well) by crocheting this wonderfully colorful, slightly Woodstock-summer-esque, joyously tasseled bag.

This pattern was originally published as Twisted’s special crochet pattern for the 2015 Rose City Yarn Crawl.
