Felted tote bag pattern

This felted tote bag pattern is fast and easy to knit and a breeze to felt.

Large and sturdy - finished size 44 x 34 cms (17.5ins x 13.5 ins) It will hold a ton of shopping, or anything else you want to carry.

We’ve chosen a thick and thin 100 percent wool yarn to give it a textural difference allowing the yarns colours to form the pattern. It's so sturdy you won’t need to line this bag - we said it was quick !!

We’ve left the top open for ease of use. If security concerns you, team it with one of our smaller felted purses or bags.

This pattern starts with dpns then moves to circular needles making all rows knit rows - great to keep your hands busy while you watch a movie or read a pdf book if you’re an experienced knitter.

If you’re a beginner to either knitting or felting you’ll find the links in this pdf invaluable. We’ve included links to our free knitting lessons with everything you’ll need to know to complete the felted tote bag including how to actually felt and block this felted project.

This pattern is free for your personal use - we hope you enjoy making it as much as we did........

This pattern is written in Australia but International knitters are also catered for with both metric and imperial measurements. The yarn used can be substituted easily in most countries - photographs close-up of yarn and ball band tensions are included.
