LANTA Bag

The casual bag with lace pattern is the perfect companion for the summer. Airy and light, ideal as a beach bag or for shopping.

The LANTA Bag is worked bottom up in a lace pattern. First the stitches are cast on with the 'Magic Cast On' and then the bag is worked in the round according to the 'Magic Loop method', first in stockinette stitch, then in the lace pattern. For the handles, the piece is later divided into 4 parts and worked back and forth, with decreases. The handles are worked in double knitting technique and finally grafted together.
