✦ Care Instructions:
Since these items are made using 100% cotton, you can easily spot-clean them. Spot cleaning t-shirt yarn is all about being gentle, targeted, and low-moisture so the stitches keep their shape.
1. Blot, don’t rub: Use a clean, dry cloth to gently blot the spot. Rubbing can stretch or fuzz the cotton fibers.
2. Mix a mild solution: Combine a few drops of gentle detergent (or baby shampoo) with cool water.
3. Dab lightly: Dip a cloth or cotton pad into the solution and dab just the stained area. Keep it localized. Don’t soak the whole piece.
4. Rinse the spot: Use a separate cloth with plain cool water to dab away any soap residue.
5. Press out moisture: Gently press with a dry towel. No wringing or twisting.
6. Air dry flat: Lay the item flat on a towel and reshape if needed. Avoid hanging (it can stretch out your stitches).

Sustainability:
Whenever possible, I incorporate upcycled materials into my work to reduce waste and give existing materials a second life. I cut discarded t-shirts into stripes, sew them together and then stretch them out to create durable yarn for many of my projects. This process is extensive but the results are so worth it!

Handmade with Care:
Each piece is made by hand, which means slight variations may occur, adding to the character and uniqueness of every item.

This handmade crochet tote bag is designed to be both beautiful and practical for everyday use. Made from soft yet durable 100% cotton yarn, the neutral cream body paired with a muted green base creates a clean, minimalist look that pairs easily with any style.

The structured crochet design helps the bag hold its shape while remaining flexible enough for daily errands, farmers market trips, or carrying your everyday essentials.
