These backpacks are an anomaly. They manage to be chic somehow. Lots of packs are more involved and have elaborate colourways; these are modest little knockouts with the curious European simplicity that dumbfounds us North Americans. Quick to make, too. Engineered very carefully (the larger pack's straps are shorter than those for the smaller one) and filled with thoughtful advice and observations, this is a jewel of a short pattern complete with adorable wee schematics (which don't need to be any bigger). From 2008.
