Textured Bag
Lion Brand® Martha Stewart CraftsTM/MC Roving Wool
GAUGE: 10 sts + 11 rows = 3 1/2 in. (9 cm) in pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
NOTES: Bag is worked in one piece, beg at top edge of front and ending at top edge of back. The Bag is then folded in half and seamed on the sides.

I've made this bag twice. It's easy and fun. I prefer a chunky yarn over the roving yarn. When using the roving yarn I'd recommend enlarging the bag as it's a bit small when made with the roving yarn. I had to improvise a bit to make the lining. I felt the instuctions for the lining were not detailed enough. However, I love this bag and will make it again.
