Knitting Level:
This tote bag pattern is ideal for beginners and offers a perfect opportunity to enhance your knitting skills while creating a stylish and functional accessory.
Main Yarn:
Utilize 100% cotton or a cotton blend yarn, ideally with a yardage of 200m (220 yds) per 100g. For best results, approximately 400m (440 yds) of yarn is recommended for the completion of this tote bag.
If you prefer a bulkier design, you can work with a yarn that has a yardage of 400m (440 yds) per 100g and knit using two strands together, which will effectively require around 800m (880 yds) of yarn. This technique adds extra durability and a unique texture to your finished piece.
Gauge:
The ideal gauge for this pattern is 21 stitches x 27 rows per 10 cm (4 in). Achieving the correct gauge is essential for ensuring your tote bag fits perfectly and looks professionally made.
Decorative Yarn:
For the decorative elements, we recommend using a felted wool cord that is 6-8 mm thick, or any other decorative cord or tape that matches your vision. You’ll need approximately 2.5 m (2.8 yds) of decorative yarn to complete the design, allowing you to mix and match colors and textures to your heart’s content.
Size:
When finished, this stunning tote bag measures approximately 33 x 36 cm (13 x 14 in), making it the perfect size for everyday errands, beach days, or as a thoughtful handmade gift.
