This simple little bag is knit flat and then seamed on both sides.

You will want to choose a “sturdy” yarn for this little bag so that you don’t need to line it (of course you could if you wished). By “sturdy” I mean a yarn that is a bit rough and probably would not feel nice if knit into a sweater!

Finished bag measures approximately 7 inches with a 40 inch shoulder strap.

I found the perfect little “Peace” button to give it just a touch of “hippie”.

I believe that I was able to make 2-3 of these bags out of a big skein of Tuffy (215 yards)!
