{"product_id":"simple-felt-bag-knitting-pattern-by-kippers-ning","title":"Simple Felt Bag","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a versatile bag pattern that can be  easily adapted to making a felt bag to suit any purpose. You could even add ribbon in as you knit to jazz it up!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI was actually asked how easy it is to knit and felt a bag. Well it is easy and hopefully with this pattern I've included a few useful tips and pointers for anyone just wanting to try.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI've not included a gauge as you will felt your knitted bag down to the size you want. If you are unsure about the amount of shrinkage your yarn will give you then knit a swatch first, measure it, wash it then measure it again. Hopefully you'll end up with around a 25-30% decrease in size. However, if your bag doesn't shrink down as much as you want, once it's been in the washer, I've included a note on what to try next.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI've used a provisional crochet cast-on - there are plenty of YouTube tutorials for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pattern is also listed on Ravelry.com so please have a look for other projects that have been made.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoveCrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56741083775354,"sku":"UPID04916","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/1113b46477b1fb61c4bdc8989d0b27554d75b5b8_UPID04916_172891662533752.jpg?v=1775814995","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-us\/products\/simple-felt-bag-knitting-pattern-by-kippers-ning","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
