Bag
Working in stripe sequence – first two rounds in black, thereafter 1 round lavender, 1 round purple, 1 round black.
Round 1 3ch, work 7tr into third ch from hook. Join into a circle.

Work 14 rounds straight, changing colour every round. Fasten off. Tidy up ends.

Using one strand of each colour, make a chain 150cm long. Fasten off. Tidy up ends.
Do the felting thing. I flung this in a hot wash with a few towels.

Cut 3-colour chain in half. Sew on as handles.

I love it! Glad I can't crochet or I'd need to make one :)
So, er, you don't want me to put up the knitted version then?
Ah, you must do for the sake of others. I'll put it on my list and stay calm.
Oooh, lovely pattern - thank you so much for sharing it, Lindsey! On my "to do" list already :)
Yes, put the knitting pattern up, please!
This is beautiful! I was searching for a pattern that I could craft into a lunch sack, and this is perfect. I shall go directly home to my hook and have it done by morning.
great purse!! well done. I may even try this one sometime.
Great purse pattern! Thanks for sharing! :)
I've started this project but am confused by one of the instructions. An example is in Round 5:
"Round 5 2ch, 1tr in same st, 2 tr *2tr in next, 3tr* finish round 2tr in 1, 2tr, join."
Where are the "2 tr" right before the asterisk attaching, in the space between stitches?
Thanks!
