What do you get when you combine two Goodwill sweaters and an old grey t-shirt?
Rag rug meets slouch bag!
Perfect for my knitting treasures.
To make this I prepared my rag strips first (instructions here), braided the strips together to make a long braid, then wrapped the braid in a coil and whipstitched it together on the inside of the bag as I went.
Wow, this bag is the best thing every, what an amazing idea, I love it. I have been thinking about making a scarf with the same technique, hadn't thought about a bag. Genius!
What a great little bag! It looks like the perfect size for a knitting project!
So cool! I wanna make one…did you follow a tutorial or is this your own design? The colors are great too 🙂
Thanks girls! Elizabeth, the design is my own, I just braided the three strips of material together and followed the old rag rug process, except that after about 5 rings I started to stack the rings. The handles were made by allowing a little slack in the top ring. I'm so glad you like it!
