These yarn keepers (or, gift bags - or, even a small, zero-waste, reusable produce bag) are especially handy for knitters who prefer to work while they walk. This little bags stretches easily enough to contain one of those HUGE commercial cakes of yarn.

There is no specific gauge required for this pattern. If a different size is required, suggest using either larger or smaller needles.

Knowledge of stitches required:

Cast-on, Knit, Purl, K2T (knit 2 together), SSK (Slip 2 stitches knitwise, transfer them back to the left needle, and knit both together through the back) YO (Yarn Over to increase), DYO (Double Yarn Over, dropping one of the yarn overs when knitting next row - creates a larger eyelet), PM (Place Marker), 2x2 Rib (K2,P2)
