Photos of the bobble stitch bag


This is the whole bag knitted in one piece before stitching up, I leave a long piece of yarn for stitching up to save attaching another piece of yarn later on.

I turned the bag around so the bobbles were facing each other and then stitched up the bag.  Then I turned it inside out so the bobbles were facing and your side seam from stitching up is not as visible.

I made the Icord to thread through the eyelets at the top to keep the bag shut but also to make a pretty bow.

Here is the finished little bobble stitch bag, i'm using this one as a gift bag instead of wrapping the present up.

Hi,
Should it be 32 or 36 stitches as divisible by 4?

Arjaye said...

Hi Ness,

I'm so sorry about the delay in getting back to you. There has been a problem with the comments and because of this it hasn't let me reply back to you.

It should be cast on 36 sts I have corrected it above on the pattern too.

Hope you have fun knitting this and if you get stuck on anything please feel free to ask either here, by email, facebook or Instagram. :-)
