Pattern description: Here’s a modern version of an old saddlebag, but you don’t need a horse to own this one.

Bag features a shoulder strap and fold-over flap closure.

Additional Materials:

  • 1 bag of Bag Smith Feathers
  • 1 adjustable silver buckle set, 1-1/8” x 2-1/4”
  • 1 ball of leather ribbon, 1/4” wide
  • 1 oval button, 1” long

Gauge is not critical to this project, and is much looser than commonly seen for this yarn. The yarn is used doubled throughout. Calls for 3 skeins of main color and 2 skeins of contrast color.
