What a cute bag. It has some great detail. Nice looking and strong which is always needed in a bag. So many places are doing away with plastic bags so making your own bag is a great idea. It is a good way to practice a new stitch as well. Thank you.

Just finished making this bag for the first time as a gift for my daughter. I love it and will definitely use it again in the future.

This bag is adorable! I'm still new to knitting, but I'd never thought to knit a bag like this before. Thanks for the inspiration!

This purse would provide a great way to learn the ins and outs of fisherman's knits. The simple trellis with the eyelets should be relatively easy to accomplish. Although this one is made out of cotton yarn, a nice quality, synthetic yarn would mean this bag would last forever and clean up in the washer and dryer.
