Field Bag
Mollie's pick: Everything I like in a bag pattern: quick, straightforward, and versatile. I've made a couple to use as various knitting project bags, but it would also be great as a lunch tote or toiletry pouch. I used a cotton/linen canvas that is a slightly lighter weight than the pattern calls for and I'm very pleased with the results!
The Field Bag was originally designed and sold by Fringe Supply Co. and is now available to home sewers as a sewing pattern! The Field Bag is ideal for organizing knitting, sewing, embroidery, or other works-in-progress. It features a roomy main compartment with interior pockets designed for corralling tools, patterns, and miscellany; grommets for managing multiple strands of yarn; and a handy wrist strap.
Techniques involved include sewing a straight seam, working with heavy fabrics, and setting grommets.
