This bag is designed with the purpose to learn Mochila techniques.
The whole bag will be worked in Back Loop Only.
It is important to have an even tension throughout the bag. We will need to give each stitch attention and Slow Down.
There are 3 ways we can make Mochila base. With 8 increases,10 increases and 12 increases. To make the base flat and firm, 8 increases is just not enough, so we will be making our base with 12 increases.
Gauge is not important for this bag. If we will use a thicker yarn than the recommended yarn, the bag will turn out bigger.
The recommended yarn for Mochila bag is 100% mercerized cotton yarn 125meter per 50 grams.
