Book Bag

I just started classes at the Academy of Art, and I want a book bag to keep my sketch books and other books protected from other things in my bag.  So, here's my next improvised design!

A note: this project is a bit of knitting and crochet.  I have mad knitting skills, and uber basic crochet skills.  This whole project is very simple though, so no advanced skills are needed.


I'm using size 10 straight knitting needles with Red Heart Super Saver acrylic yarn (double stranded).



Cast on 33 stitches. (or whatever width you desire)
Knit first row.  Purl second row.  Repeat until desired length.

Crochet the sides together, weaving in the end.

Chain (or I-cord) two same-length handles along the top opening, attaching at the same place on each side.  Viola!  You're done!
