From the pattern description:

Rows of garter stitch, moss stitch and stocking stitch form the pattern and stripes in this neat little bag. The yarn is used double throughout to give the fabric a degree of stiffness. The front and back of the bag are knitted differently, so the width of the stripes is not the same and the stitches used vary.
