Linnie Bag
DISCOUNT - If you buy all three of my published bags this summer a discount will be activated - 3 for the price of 2. This is valid for Linnie Bag, Abbie Backpack and Bille Bumbag until August 31. 2025. If you already have purchased one or two of the patterns, the third will be for free.
This bag is knitted in double strand of DK weight yarn creating an aran gauge. I choose Line from Sandnes Garn because of the fiber content in this yarn. Bags need plenty of sturdiness in its structure and a blend of linen and cotton gives this to the fabric. The bag uses in total 300 g of DK weight yarn. This is included enough yarn for the straps.
It is knitted bottom up using Judy’s Magic cast on and three longer circular needles in the beginning. There is some shaping in the bottom and in the end using regular techniques for increases and decreases.
There is two choices for straps:
1) Classic totebag straps knitted directly from the edge
2) Holes for custom made straps of choice
The bag doesn’t need a lining if the fabric becomes super sturdy on it’s own. I have made a video on how to make the lining and straps in fabric:
English - https://youtu.be/YoBke-N3d20
Norwegian - https://youtu.be/oi4RBWZrHss
A lining will keep the bag in its original shape longer when used.
The bag can be knitted in 4 strands of fingering weight yarn as well. I have not tested it in this bag, but I have tested it in another pattern that will be released this summer. You only have to double the meterage/yardage compared to using two strands of DK weight yarn as the prototypes and the testing have been made with.
I really hope you will enjoy this project, and please let me know if you have any feedback about the pattern. This was a really nice project for me to work on, and I will be using my grey tote for the rest of the summer.
Happy knitting!
