The Rowan Tote

Sturdy enough for the market, pretty enough for everywhere else. I designed The Rowan Tote for those who appreciate a bag that feels as substantial as it looks. This isn't your average flimsy shopper; it is hand-crocheted stitch-by-stitch with 100% heavy-weight cotton to create a dense, nubby texture that stands up to daily use. The secret to its strength is on the inside. I’ve lined the interior with corduroy, giving the tote a structured, "stay-open" shape that won’t collapse when you’re reaching for your essentials. Whether you’re tucking away a fresh find from the farmer's market or your favorite hardcover book, the Rowan is built to be a reliable, tactile companion for years to come.
