Notes

I loved putting together this design, everything just fell into place! Especially pleased with the handle, double knit was the perfect solution. Allowed for a pretty reversible design, extra strength and for a reinforced bottom as well.

I’m just so stoked to be included in the Stitch ‘n Bitch series. The first book was what got me into knitting in the first place and what I learned from. Wonderful feeling to come full circle now in the “advanced book”!

ERRATA: In the writing, for the Gusset/Strap, it should read:
Cont rep rows 1-2, working rows 1-7 of Chart 2. Work rows 8-27 (20-row rep) 9 times, then work final 6 rows.
