π 5 Beautiful Knitted Bag Patterns
Summer is just around the corner and that means lots of trips to the farmers market, the beach, or vacation.
So what better time to knit up a little bag to have with you at all times. Something less than a purse but more meaningful than another canvas tote.
Why we love it: This simple tote just makes you smile. The stranded colorwork cherries are just begging to be taken to the market.
Why we love it: A lot of bags on this list are pretty and cute, but this one is also nice and sturdy in its construction.
Why we love it: This gorgeous bag may be minimalist, but it quietly gives classy luxury vibes.
Why we love it: This bag is just fun. And drawstring bags are highly underrated knitting projects.
Why we love it: We're in love with the waffle rib texture of this bag, but also it's clever construction.
