REBECCA RABBIT FELTED BAG KNITTING PATTERN
This listing is for a pdf pattern for a rabbit backpack or bag. This bag is part of our Rebecca Rabbit Collection, inspired by our knitted toy pattern. This bag looks impressive but is actually really quick and straightforward to knit and is simply felted in your washing machine - an amazing transformation process, which yields remarkably great results each time. Full, detailed instructions are included.

SIZE
This knitting pattern gives instructions for one size of rabbit backpack or bag. It is knitted in a chunky felting yarn (we recommend DROPS Eskimo and have tested this yarn extensively in this pattern to allow for the correct amount of shrinkage) on 8mm needles. The bag measures approximately 27cm high by 24cm wide.

MATERIALS
Knitting the rabbit bag takes approx. 8 x 50g balls of chunky felting yarn in grey or a main colour of your choice (400m), plus scraps of white, black and pink for the tail and features. You will also need 8mm needles and a magnetic clasp. You may also want to choose some fabric to line your bag and to make the inner ears if you choose to include them.

DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS
This is not just a knitting pattern, it is a 29 page project book! It contains full instructions on how to knit the bunny rabbit bag, and felt it in your washing machine successfully. It also contains descriptions of how to follow the directions and sections of techniques used with pictures and step by step instructions. Great for novice knitters, or if you just need a bit of extra help. However if you you are an experienced knitter you can simply turn to the back for the 2 page concise version!
