You’ll discover that this shopping bag is not too big and not too small - it’s is just the right size for popping to the shops to buy a few things.

Full-length handles give great support to the bottom of the bag, so there’s no fear of anything coming adrift.

Personalise your bag with your own choice of beads, buttons, gems or charms to decorate the handles.

Choose three colours and get going on this easy to make bag, worked in an all-over tweedy spike stitch. you only use one colour on each row, so it’s not as difficult as it might appear.

We used Paintbox Cotton Arran in Slate Green (3 balls), Kingfisher Blue (2 balls), and Marine Blue (2 balls).
