Tile Bag
DESCRIPTION
If you spend your last days of summer lounging by the pool or sunbathing on the beach, you’re going to love having this tile bag by your side.
It’s big enough to hold your laptop, book, sunglasses, and of course, your next knitting project.
This bag is created with a slip stitch technique and only one color per row.
The thoughtful design features tiles in the Mosaic Knitting technique and i-cord straps braided like nautical ropes.
Use your creativity to choose two colors to make your project shine and stand out.
The Tile bag is knitted in the round from topdown using an i-cord cast on.
The main body is knitted using mosaic colorwork and using a buttonhole technique to create the opening for the straps.
The bottom of the bag is shaped using decrease stitches, then stitches are grafted together with Kitchener stitch.
