ZigBagZ Maxi Collection

There are two related patterns, the MaxiBagZ and MiniBagZ. MaxiBagZ includes:

- BiggieZig: Manageable carry-all.
- BurlyZig: A hefty project bag for creative folks.

Knit in the round, in stranded colorwork. Use only two yarns per row in a masterful method which looks much fancier than it is.

The colorwork presents significant depth by alternating two sets of solid/striping yarns, one set when the pattern "zigs" to the left, and the other set when it "zags" to the right.

These bags have been a hit at every gathering they have graced, from the east coast to the midwest and Texas. Join the fun and make a bag you will use faithfully for years.
