Cappuccino Felted Bag Pattern

My Cappuccino Felted Bag pattern uses reverse Fair Isle patterning to form a series of textured ridges, which separate graphic strips of ‘right way round’ Fair Isle. The 'Right and Wrong Side' Fair Isle stitch pattern is knitted in Blacker Yarns Pure Ryeland Aran Wool (Aran weight, 100% wool, 70m/76yds per 50g ball). To make the bag, you will need 4 x 50g balls of Dark Brown and 2 x 50g balls of Cream.

Leather handles complete the smart look. The handles shown here are leather piped 18inch bag handles in shade 'Dk Choc', available from U-handbag.com.

The Cappuccino bag is knitted in one piece and felted in the washing machine after sewing up. Felting gives the bag a lovely soft look and feel. After felting, the bag measures approximately 29cm wide and 30cm long.

Cappuccino is now available in my Ravelry Store. The pattern was first published as a 'subscriber exclusive' in The Knitter Magazine, Issue 48.
