Supplies: beWoolen’s sample bag was made with 7 colors, mixed and matched to make 12 hexagons that magically turn into a fun and cute bag!
The sample is made with Pascuali filati naturali – Nepal. This made a smaller bag, but you can choose any weight yarn - the thicker the yarn, the bigger the bag!
Some suggested yarns are Cascade Nifty Cotton, Cascade Friday Harbor, Cascade Grande, Berroco Bozzolo, or Berroco Meraki, Malabrigo Chunky. You will also need whatever hook corresponds to your yarn/pattern, locking stitch markers, scissors, and a tapestry needle.
