This versatile drawstring bag is ideal for the beach, for shopping trips or even for storing your work-in-progress. The front and back pieces incorporate a folded channel at the top, through which are threaded two long strips of i-cord; two small loops are knitted and attached to the bottom of the bag, through which the drawstrings are anchored.

Designer Ella Burch has used Scheepjes Stonewashed XL, an aran-weight blend of cotton and acrylic that comes in a choice of 52 colours and is machine-washable.
