This colourful bag is based on The Jackfield Tile Square (pattern available separately here) but can of course be made with any suitable square. Both Jackfield patterns have now been completely updated and revamped, with lots more photographs and clearer instructions.

Please note this is a detailed guide showing you how to create a bag, now including a separate file showing you how to add a zipped closure for extra security if required. The square pattern is NOT included but there is an automatic 25% discount if you purchase both patterns - it you buy one and decide to buy the other one later, Ravelry will remember you and the discount will still apply. YOU NEED TO BE A RAVELRY MEMBER FOR THIS TO WORK. Non-members will receive the discount if they buy both patterns in the same transaction.

A simple cover is constructed from three pieces, then permanently stitched to an inexpensive, ready-made canvas base - a fuss-free way of adding strength, stability, shape and handles all in one go.

Instructions are given for DK and Aran/Worsted weight yarn using the appropriate hook. Most importantly, the notes allow for adjustment to fit any gauge, and any size and depth of inner bag, as long as the front panels are square.

These bags are a great way to use up leftover yarn. Decorate them with beads, buttons, tassels, anything - let your imagination run riot!

Sincere thanks to Ann Mulford for the closure instructions and to my wonderful testers - you know who you are! Couldn’t have done this without you.
