  • Gauge is flexible - between 22-24 stitches in 4”/10 cm.

  • Finished size is approximately 16” circumference x 8” high.

  • Beaded fringe is optional.

  • Pattern requires a sewn-in zipper.

Samples in book were knit with the following yarns

  • Berroco Denim Silk
  • Rowan Denim
  • Rowan Lurex Shimmer

Make a simple bag from a tube. But rather than placing the zipper parallel to the bottom seam, rotate it 90 degrees within the opening. The result is a bag with added dimension and character. Add a strap, a loop, and maybe the optional button for a bag with different personalities.
