The Barrel Stitch Bag came out of an idea of a bag shape that I wanted to make, but I couldn’t come up with a stitch pattern that made me happy. I want something thick (so I wouldn’t have to line the bag) with an interesting and classic texture.

While making a pair of clog slippers for my husband, I got to thinking about the chunky braid stitch that is used to make the cuff. So I started fiddling with some scrap yarn and came up with what I’m calling the “barrel stitch”. Doesn’t the fabric look like stacked rows of little barrels?

The Barrel Stitch Bag is loom knit on any 3/8” gauge loom with at least 72 pegs (like the All N One loom). It uses 510 yards of a worsted weight yarn. 1/2 skein of Lion Brand’s Pound of Love in the Taupe colorway was used in the sample.

The bag in knit as a one piece flat panel and then seamed to create the purse. The pattern is suitable for a confident, advanced beginner.

The finished size of this bag is 14” wide x 7” tall x 4” deep.

I purchased 10 patterns, I want to make sure they get a review for each one, so all reviews will say the same thing. I have not had time yet to make any of them, but I have read each pattern and found them all very easy to understand. I am especially excited to try the tote with the woven bottom, simply because I have never done weaving and I love to try new things! All of the patterns are unique from others that I seem to see every where. I’m also happy to be learning a couple of new stitches, which will be easy, because they are explained/described exceptionally. I highly recommend this seller. I have purchased some pretty bad patterns over the years and probably should have just bought one to make sure it would make sense. But I liked so many of the patterns offered and decided to take a chance. I’m very glad that I did!
