Crochet mini tote with magnetic closure: Meda Bag Mini Dot Bag

Is this a lightweight crochet mini tote bag?

I usually prefer lightweight mini tote bags, so I tried the Meda Bag Mini Dot Bag as a bag for winter. It arrived in a dust bag.

Its crochet design suited fall and winter outfits, and because it was light, I often carried it as an everyday bag.

How did the green color work with outfits?

There were six colors, and I chose the muted green. It was not too bold but added a natural accent to outfits, and I picked it because I thought it would feel less prone to showing dirt than a light color.

How did I use the included keychains?

The shopping-bag-shaped keychain could hold small items. It was large enough for earbuds, and its colors went well with the bag. A dog keychain wearing goggles came with it too.

The keychains also looked good attached to other bags. I decorated mine by putting a green-onion-shaped keychain inside the shopping-bag keychain, and it worked better than I expected.

Can you keep belongings secure in this mini bag?

I worried that a crochet bag might not have a closure, but this one opened and closed with a magnetic snap. While carrying car keys, a wallet, lipstick, a mirror, and a comb, I never had anything fall out.

What are the actual capacity and base like?

The firm, structured base made it easy to pack. Although it is small, the crochet material stretches a little, so it held a wallet, car keys, cosmetics, earbuds, a power bank, and even thick wet wipes, with a little room left at the top.

Was it good to carry with winter outerwear?

I paired it with both a long padded coat and a short padded jacket. It was light, and the green color added an accent, so I reached for it often as an everyday winter bag.
