Meet the Amelia Beach Tote

Inspired by long, relaxing weekends sitting by the ocean listening to the waves crash into the shore while sunbathing and crocheting. This bag combines the durability of a single crochet base with the eye-catching texture of the Tunisian ripple stitch, resulting in a beautiful and functional accessory. Get ready to impress as you carry your essentials in style, all while adding a personal touch to your favorite summer looks.

Asia Bree Martinez of Yarnfixation

Asia is a Tunisian crochet designer who lives in sunny South Florida with her husband and cats. Asia has been crocheting since kindergarten and taught herself Tunisian crochet and knitting around 2019. When Asia isn’t playing with yarn, she is a special education preschool teacher where she gets to work with autistic kids. Warm weather and being able to wear or use the makes around young kids guides her design choices. It is important that each design is functional and beautiful so you can actually use your makes.
