Need Crochet Pattern -- shopping bag

Somewhere I used to have a crochet pattern for the European-style
shopping bags.

Anyone know where I could acquire (preferably free) such a pattern?

Thanks, Lucille, but it wasn't quite what I was looking for. I had in
mind the mesh ones that every good European housewife keeps tucked in
her pocket in case she finds something worth buying. They used to make
them out of leftover string; my pattern was for Knit-Cro-Sheen.

The one in Canadian Living has a round base but I also have another pattern
from Canadian Living that is not on the web for basically the same bag
without a base...Let me know if you want that one as well. I can scan it and
sent it by email to you.

A word of warning. I made several of these some years back - long
before they became fashionable again, so I made up the pattern myself
and had them the same dimensions as a paper grocery sack. They worked
beautifully, BUT, if you try to put anything heavy in them, the handles
will just about cut through your fingers! I still keep a couple in the
car, plus one in the house, along with all my canvas ones, and they are
excellent for lightweight things, but DO NOT attempt to carry a
ten-pound bag of potatoes in one, you will regret it.
