One World Market Bag

We only have One World, with finite resources, making the use of reusable products vital to the health of our planet. We are One World, making cooperation between nations just as vital. I designed this market bag to encompass those two realities. The 70% Wool, 30% Mohair Peace Fleece yarn itself is central to the One World idea. Peace Fleece is a fiber cooperative bringing together farmers from Russia, eastern Europe, central Asia, the Middle East, and the US for mutual understanding and economic independence. And they make an incredible yarn in the process!

The One World market bag features an open but sturdy construction (I can easily carry a gallon of milk in one!) which is just stretchy enough to allow plenty of shopping space. It is perfect for the grocery or the farmers market. The addition of the drawstring allows you to close the bag to prevent run-away fruit :D
