My Essentials Bag is a spacious shoulder bag knit in slip stitches and stockinette stiches. The slip stitch pattern gives the bag its characteristic look and makes the bottom and strap sturdy. The bag is knit bottom-up. That way you can adjust the height of the bag and the length of the strap to your liking.
