When I received my Purl &Jane Yorkshire Yarn Skipton Swaledale from the spinners I played around with different stitch techniques and found the perfect one for this bag. It’s one of my favourite textures – the chevron.
I designed the bag because I wanted a small bag to carry around my purse and phone in, I knitted a short strap but it’s easy to continue knitting the strap until it is your desired length – obviously this means more yarn might be needed than is suggested here.
