Description Sewing Pattern: Projectbag BI&SI

The project bag Bi&SI pattern leaves nothing to be desired. The sewing pattern is available in 2 sizes – The choice is yours:
As a large project bag, it offers enough storage space for jumpers and cardigans – even in XL format or for long cuddly scarves and socks for the whole family.
The pattern also includes a 20% scaled down version for smaller volume projects such as socks or hats etc. The divided interior pocket is perfect for keeping your instructions, circular needles, double pointed needles, crochet hooks etc. well organised. Your stitch markers are attached to a ring, ready to hand at all times.
The characteristic Japanese drawstring closure narrows the opening (more or less, depending on fabric quality), which can also be closed with a magnetic button.

Fold out the edge for better knitting!

With both sizes, you can roll the top edge of the bag outwards. While you are knitting or crocheting, this feature makes it easier for you to access and work in general. Ingenious, isn’t it?

The travel edition:

As a special option, we have developed a travel version of the project bag: You can attach a long shoulder strap to keep your hands free during transport. Also choose a robust outer fabric,
e.g. Dry Oilskin. This keeps the contents protected, even when it rains or when it’s windy and sandy on the beach. If you would like to add a zipped interior pocket for this edition, you will find it in the instructions.

The pattern offers many possible combinations in the choice of fabric, wearing comfort and pocket division in the lining.

From what materials you can sew the projectbag:

Canvas, jeans, dry oilskin, tweed, upholstery fabrics in light to medium weight qualities, wool felt, velvet. Fusible fleece interfacing lends stability to the bag without making it unnecessarily stiff. You can also use more „stiffening“ interfacing if you wish.
