This fun knot bag works up very quickly and can be made both multi-colored or plain with beautiful results. The concept is simple, making 2 sunburst motifs and adding handles of differing lengths to create the knot shape when worn.

I have also included some notes for a different handle look by adding a round of textured stitches on the outer portion. I use this in the plain version, but I did have a tester use it on her colored version and it looked awesome (see photos).
