EVERYDAY Bag
Introducing the EVERYDAY bag: a stylish yet practical casual pouch bag designed to be your go-to companion for everyday adventures. With ample storage space and a chic design, this bag fits seamlessly into your daily routine, showcasing your knitting prowess while providing functional use.
This delightful bag is crafted from the bottom up, using the innovative ‘Magic CO’ technique to cast on stitches. The entire body of the bag is worked in round stockinette stitch, utilizing the ‘Magic Loop Method’ for optimal results and ease of use. For the handles, the project is cleverly divided into two sections, allowing you to knit them back and forth in stockinette stitch while implementing decreases for a refined finish. Finally, the handles come together beautifully as they are grafted using the traditional Kitchener stitch technique, creating a polished and seamless look.
