The Knockabout Backpack is a simple, quick and versatile bag that can be easily personalized. Simple crochet stitches are used in both the fulled and non-fulled versions of this bag and the ombre mixing of yarn colors provides interest. You could also make this bag in a solid color and use it as a base for embellishing with needle felting or embroidery. Size is customizable and the backpack can be lined for additional support or left unlined for a more casual look.

Separate instructions are provided for the cotton backpack and the felted backpack.

Stitches Used: Foundation Chain; SC; HDC; DC; Slip Stitch.
