Sunday Bag – Knitted Tote

A knitting pattern for the Sunday Bag — a striped shoulder tote worked seamlessly in the round from the base up, with a fabric lining and a leather strap for a clean, everyday finish.

Roomy enough for a knitting project, a book, and the weekend essentials — a timeless handmade piece that goes with everything. The body is worked in the round in stripes, and the straps are finished in double knitting to form tunnels for the leather strap. The bag is lined with fabric and the strap is fixed with Chicago screws.
