A bag you’ll actually use — and proudly say you made.
In this two-session workshop, you’ll knit the Market Square Bag, a sturdy, reusable tote featuring a striking slip-stitch mosaic pattern. Using the beautiful color-blended texture of Queensland Cairns yarn, this bag has depth, structure, and modern style — perfect for farmer’s markets, library trips, or carrying your latest knitting project.
Yes… it can even carry yarn to buy more yarn!
Class meets twice for 2 hours.
Pattern is included.
To make the most of our time together, students should pick up yarn and pattern early and arrive with the base of the bag completed. (Didn’t finish? No worries — we’ll help you get back on track.)
