Large Black and White Textured Bag by Evelyn Siatra
Project Overview
This downloadable knitting pattern from independent designer Evelyn Siatra, available through Creationsbyeve, provides instructions for creating a striking large black and white textured bag. The finished bag measures 15.7 inches wide by 13.5 inches tall when laid flat after felting, making it a spacious accessory suitable for everyday use or as a statement piece.
Construction and Techniques
The bag is constructed using knitting as the primary technique, with the pattern incorporating textured stitch work to create visual interest through the contrast of black and white yarns. The design utilizes felting as a finishing technique, which transforms the knitted fabric and enhances the textured appearance while also providing structure and durability to the finished bag. The pattern includes crochet elements, as indicated by the inclusion of a crochet hook in the required tools, suggesting hybrid construction methods that combine knitting and crochet techniques.
Yarn and Materials
The pattern calls for two distinct yarns to achieve the striking color contrast:
- Yarn A (Black): 100% wool in Super Bulky weight, specifically the "Maxi-Maxi" yarn by M.Molokotos S.A., requiring 1 skein. This yarn provides 200 grams (7 ounces) per skein with yardage of 110 meters (120.34 yards).
- Yarn B (White): A 20% wool and 80% acrylic blend in Bulky weight, the "Sport" yarn by Steinbach Wolle, requiring 2 skeins. Each skein contains 100 grams (3.5 ounces) with 140 meters (153 yards) of yardage.
The combination of a pure wool super bulky yarn with a wool-acrylic blend bulky yarn creates interesting textural contrasts while the wool content ensures the piece will felt properly during finishing.
Tools and Notions
Construction requires US 10.5 (7mm) circular knitting needles and a US K-10.5 (7mm) crochet hook. Additional notions include stitch markers for tracking pattern repeats, a tapestry needle for weaving in ends and seaming, and a pair of wooden handles to complete the bag structure. Knitters should adjust needle size as needed to obtain the correct gauge specified in the pattern.
