Free Pattern for a mini Christmas gift bag. There are full instructions and images to help. 

The inside uses a cardboard tube from a toilet or kitchen roll.  The bag has eyelets for you to add ribbon or cord for a drawstring to hang.  Ideal for a small gift or chocolates, or just to hang as decoration. A nice little stash buster while you have your coloured yarns out!

Materials:
Small amount of Dk yarn in 2 colours (less than 10g each), Ribbon or Cord, cardboard tube (toilet roll), scissors and needle.

Sizes:
Finished sizes are Height 11cm/4.5inches - width 5cm/2inches - height for storage inside is 8cm/3.25inches.

Notes:
You will need to know how to change colours and carry the yarn up the side of the knitting. There are no charts as I have written out the pattern for you to follow row by row.  Use ribbon, thread, knit or crochet cords to tie and hang.  You need 2 colours to follow the pattern, it is shown using DK yarn and 3.5mm knitting needles and uses less than 10g of each colour.

The eyelet row is made using (yf,K1,Sl1,psso)Yarn forward, Knit1,Slip1, Pass slip stich over.  I have including images to help or search for this method if unsure.  If this row is the one that puts you off then my suggestion is don’t make it with eyelets and just pull up the top with ribbon around the outside.
