The Balloon bag is very cute and round. It is made in the round bottom-up and the straps are made seamlessly from the body of the bag and sewn together at the top.

I made a smallish bag - measuring 28 cm in width and 28 cm in height, but it is very easy to make a larger (or smaller) bag, if you prefer. Instructions are given in the pattern.

The bag is made in front/back post dc and in the pattern there are complete written instructions and a chart to help you with the bottom of the bag.

I used 4 skeins of Kreative Deluxe organic cotton (165 m/50 g) - the yarn is used almost to the last meter, so you might want to get a 5th skein to be sure.

Pattern is available in English (US terms), German, Spanish (ES) and Danish
