Double Take

Every fiber artist has heard of or participated in the continuous feud between knit and crochet. This silly argument has been going on for quite a while, and it is time for it to end.

Double Take is a beautiful knit and crochet bag that combines the basics of both equally as beautiful crafts into one elegant crossbody.

The bag uses about 81 yards of Big Twist T-Shirt yarn. It is a category 6 - Super Bulky weight, and the pattern uses a 9 mm crochet hook and 8 mm knitting needles with a 16” cord. It can be adjusted by adding/subtracting rows/stitches on each of the panels.

It is my goal to squander this ongoing battle, and I hope you will join me in my fight.
