KZStevens designed this tote with lean lines and minimalist hand-stitched details, which makes this the perfect tote to carry around your latest sweater project, or for a quick trip to the farmers market. It has a deep gusset, which makes it super roomy, and the side mounted handles cleverly close up the top while you are carrying it around. There is an added side pocket to stash your essentials. KZ’s love of hand silk-screened fabrics and simple running stitches are shown off against the natural linen or canvas background.
