Swell Project Bag

Take the Swell Project Bag with you on your next ocean sojourn. Inspired by the ocean waves and the adventures they represent, this crocheted drawstring bag is generous enough to transport the largest of projects.

Worked in the round, it will work up quickly and you’ll soon be able to fill it with that big project, pull out your yarn and gaze out to sea while watching the stitches slip into place.

Here’s what’s included ;

  • a clearly written pattern
  • a hints and tips page with photos and explanations of anything unusual or a bit tricky
  • written instructions that can be printed alone to save paper

Finished Size

Base approx. 26 cm /10”, height approx. 36 cm/ 14”, circumference approx. 76cm/ 30”.
