This is a mini bag pattern featuring a soft yet structured texture.
The main body is worked using a knitted herringbone stitch, which beautifully enhances the shimmer of the metallic yarn with its unique, richly textured pattern.
A 4-stitch i-cord strap allows for adjustable length, so you can style the bag as a tote, shoulder bag, or crossbody.

Techniques used:

  • Knitted herringbone stitch
  • 4-stitch i-cord
  • Single crochet (for seaming)
  • Tapestry needle sewing (similar to mattress stitch)

⚠️ Please note:
This pattern includes a variety of techniques: herringbone stitch knitting, crochet, i-cord making, and mattress-style seaming.
Due to the nature of metallic yarn, it may feel slightly challenging—especially for beginners.
Please refer to the linked tutorials for technique-specific guidance.

Gauge swatching is highly recommended, and you may want to adjust your needle size if needed—I tend to knit quite loosely.

✔ Step-by-step written instructions
✔ In-progress photos

✔ Detailed stitch placements for every step (❁´◡`❁)
