Knit This Build That

My name is Corinne and I am on a journey to improve both my knitting and woodworking skills. Please join me as I share my projects and processes. The more that we know how to do, the more that we can do for others.

Knitting Project Bag


This is a sewn project, but it’s for my knitting, so it deserves to be included here. I really wanted to sew a pretty project bag for my small projects. I used a free pattern at Spruce Crafts (https://www.thesprucecrafts.com/needlecrafts-project-bag-4174921#:~:text=Instructions%201%20Prepare%20the%20Fabric%20Pieces.%20Cut%20the,8%20Put%20Your%20Project%20Bag%20to%20Use.%20) to create the bag, but I chose buttons for closure instead of snaps. I only had enough fusible interfacing to put on the outer fabrics and sewed interfacing to the lining material. I also added a series of 3 pockets inside because I like to have spots to keep little extras that you always end up needing. If you’re home, then you have easy access to your stitch markers, hooks, scissors or whatnot, but you need to have them with you if you are out. Pockets are a lovely addition to this design. I think that this bag turned out quite well. The size 11-1/2″ wide by 9-1/2 high and 5″ deep is a great for my socks, but could easily fit a scarf.

How cute is this?!

Pattern

Fabric and fusible or sewn-in interfacing
