String bags are incredibly useful because they are compact to pack, yet can stretch to hold all manner of goodies. This version is based on the ubiquitous drawstring backpack, with the unique twist of being made with strips of T-shirt fabric. Take it to the farmer’s market, the beach, or just keep it available for when you need to carry a bit more than you originally planned.
