Here is a tote bag that can be used as a knitting/crochet tote bag or as a shopping bag (see pictures below). Fill this bag with goodies as you take a walk to the park for relaxation (sight seeing, reading a novel , crafting and much more).

This bag makes a lovely gift ( fill it with sewing books, fabrics and tools for a sewist; Novels, highlighter- pen, notebook for a Novelist; and so on) depends on who you are giving it to.
