AC306 Stow-Away Shopping Bag
WEB EXCLUSIVE

"The bottom of this bag is a pouch into which you can stuff the sides when not in use," says Dempsey. "Makes a great gift. Knit in worsted weight. 13" wide, 12" high, (when new) excluding handles." Some people make washcloths as mindless projects and travel knitting, but we think this is a great candidate as well-- you really can't have too many, and they're great for shopping or the beach. There's a great little diagram to show exactly how to make the bottom pouch part, and the openwork pattern is very simple-- four rounds, two of which are knitted. Original yarn discontinued-- use a strong worsted or aran-weight cotton or blend.
