Gift Bag

Scrumptious Living … Itty Bits of Knitting
Small Knitted Drawstring Gift Bag

Firefly Small Knitted Drawstring Gift BagI made this drawstring gift bag as an experiment to see how large my Itty Bag pattern would come out if knitted with worsted weight yarn on size U.S. 8 dpns. I have this idea of making pairs of Knitty.com’s “Fetching” fingerless gloves for some loved ones as Christmas gifts, and presenting them in these small knitted gift bags. So, I was hoping the bag would be large enough to accomodate one pair of Fetching gloves, and it does.

This bag features picot edging at the top and little french knots on each picot point, as well as a knitted I-cord for the drawstring. You can find the pattern on my I Live on a Farm website or in my Etsy store, under “Three Farm Fresh Gift Bags”.

  4. I made your little gift bag last night. How fun!this was to knit, since it’s so small and the knitting goes so fast. I’m planning to make some more of them as Christmas gift packages. Once I take a picture of the one I finished, I’ll post a picture on my site. Thanks for the pattern!

  6. […] I will be making a knitted gift bag for these to go in, in a cream-colored Debbie Bliss cashmerino yarn. I will most likely complete the bag by Wednesday and photos will be available. […]
