I designed this bag to be my lunch tote. It is just big enough for my wallet, mobile phone, tissue pack, and some knick-knacks.

The central panel is made up of a wild oak cable “borrowed” from the Aran laptop cover. Stitch markers are used to mark out the left and right side of the bag. The wild oak panel can be repeated on both sides or just one side.

To avoid seaming, you can use the Turkish cast on or Judy’s Magic cast on.
