Make a bag or backpack to match every outfit--and some to organize the home! With these stylish and fast-to-finish patterns, it's a pure delight to knit purses, carriers, and totes of all kinds. Pretty snowflakes swirl around a lovely blue Fair Isle pack, designed by Joan McGowan. Step out for a night on the town with all your essentials in a drawstring evening bag adorned with roses, created by Nicky Epstein. Lovely lingerie belongs in an equally lovely bag made of flowers and beads--such as the one Sasha Kagan devised. And, don't forget the kids: with knapsacks more popular than ever, they'll love wearing a Deborah Newton's bright and colorful felted yarn version. 20 fantastic styles!
