Knit in DK weight yarn, this beginner-friendly project is perfectly sized for holding yarn, needles, notions, and other crafting essentials.
Simple stitches and an easy construction make this knitting pattern ideal for beginners, while its clean, minimalist design creates a beautiful project bag you’ll enjoy using long after you’ve finished knitting it.
The size of the finished bag, when laid flat, is approx. 14.5″ (36.83 cm) x approx. 14.5″ (36.83 cm). It is designed as a smaller storage bag, perfect to hold knit and crochet notions, a small knitting project, or as a gift bag to wrap something special in.
