When I spied this recycled cotton yarn I immediately thought - bag! This has worked up extremely quickly, as you might imagine given the thick yarn and big hook, and turned into a striking, pretty and practical bag for every day.

This did not used up the entire yarn roll and there was enough for another smaller bag after this one! Really - can you have too many?

I have included some instructions to line the bag too if you wish, although given how robust the fabric turns out this is by no means essential. Lining will require some basic sewing skills and knowledge.

Note: the hook sizes listed as standard on Ravelry do not include a 12.00mm hook. Therefore, for ease, I have listed a 12.75mm hook on this page rather than the 12.00mm hook which was actually used.
