Funky bobbles shoulder bag

Introducing our chic and trendy knitting pattern for an eye-catching bag that is sure to turn heads everywhere you go! This stylish bag not only makes a fashionable statement but is also a practical accessory for everyday use. Prepare to be asked repeatedly, "Where did you get that bag?" as onlookers admire your handiwork.
Yarn: For this project, you'll need 80% cotton-20% acrylic yarn, classified as light worsted. We recommend using «Kotoline» by Kangaroo, which comes in 100g (3.5 oz) skeins and provides approximately 250 m (273.5 yds) of gorgeous yarn. You will need 4 skeins in a vibrant orange color to bring your bag to life.
Needles: Use US 6 (4mm) circular needles and double-pointed needles (dpn) in the same size. Feel free to adjust your needle size to achieve the correct gauge for a perfect fit.
Notions: Make sure you have a tapestry needle, stitch holder, fabric for lining, matching sewing thread, and a pair of beautiful brown leather-wood braided handles that measure 30 inches (76 cm) long (end to end). You will also need a sewing needle and a sewing machine for assembly.
Gauge: To ensure your bag turns out just right, aim for a gauge of 18 stitches x 32 rows = 10 x 10 cm (in a delightful bobble pattern), and 19 stitches x 29 rows in classic stockinette stitch.
Level: This knitting pattern is designed for intermediate knitters. You should have a solid understanding of knitting and purling, as well as skills in picking up stitches, working in the round on circular needles, and performing some simple hand-sewing to finish the project.
The bag is ingeniously crafted in two pieces. The base and front body are worked together, after which stitches are picked up from the remaining three sides of the bottom, seamlessly transforming your materials into a stylish bag.
Whether you're looking to refresh your accessory collection or create a thoughtful gift, this knitting pattern is a fantastic choice. Embrace your creativity, elevate your knitting skills, and enjoy the satisfaction of crafting your very own handmade bag!
