Pattern description from Alterknits: “These quick-to-knit bags double as PDA cases and mini satchels, perfect for outings when all you want to take along is identification, keys, and some money. They are knitted in one color, then felted, and if desired, embellished with embroidery. Two options are given for the closure (either a snap or a button and button loop) and for the handle: you can either permanently attach the handle to the bag on both sides (option a), or you can permanently attach it on one side, then attach it to the other side with a button (option b), making it possible to attach your case to something else, such as a backpack or belt loop.”
