It’s always fun to have a project with you when you’re traveling. The Atlas Basket Bag is portable and converts into a handy yarn basket when you fold the top down. Knit in the round and cinched at the bottom, this is an easy project that knits up fast. Plus, we love its mod vibe and motif inspired by woven reed ceilings found in Morocco - where Atlas Wool Supply Co. is located.

Our hand spun, bulky High Atlas Wool yarn is perfect for creating a bag that will hold its shape. The wool is sourced from Moroccan shepherds in the High Atlas who we know and trust. Artisans from the Anou Cooperative community process and hand spin the wool to create yarn with character and structure.

We hope you have fun making this bag, and that it inspires you to visit Morocco!
