A quick-to knit bag, knitted in Chunky yarn on 5mm needles to make a dense fabric. A good size for everyday use, the finished bag measures approx 22cm wide, 26cm deep, and is fastened with two buttons. A plaited strap and fabric lining add the finishing flourishes.

You will need 200gr Chunky yarn, 5mm needles, lining fabric and two buttons. Full instuctions are given for working the modular squares technique used.

When you’ve got the hang of the technique, why not try making another bag in a different yarn weight/needle size and using more, or less, squares?
