Discontinued. This digital pattern is no longer available online.

This is a knit-in-one-piece pattern. Garter Stitch is used on handle and front and back panels. The handle and sides/bottom are knitted first. The front and back panels are joined next with a pick up and knit technique. After felting the size of the bag is 9” tall by 11” wide. The strap is 21” long. Thickness is 3”. I suggest 100% medium weight wool that will felt (not machine washable wool or a blend). The design is formed by color changes on the right side every so often. Make it your own! I used one third of the total yardage in a contrasting color and texture.
