The beauty of the Japanese Knot Bag is it closes securely without the need for clasps or zips. By working with 2 strands of DK yarn (approximately 65g of each colour) and a 5.0mm crochet hook, you can create a bag that is sturdy. Also it’s a great stash buster!

Every Knot Bag is a unique piece and the multi-strand creates a beautiful look. It’s worked from the bottom up, in the round and it’s seamless! The handles are worked in turned rows.

Finished Measurements (including handle): 21cm x 30cm

The pattern comes with written, photo and video tutorials that explain all the stitches and techniques involved so you cannot go wrong. There is no need to look elsewhere for a tutorial!
