This quirky handbag is packed with style. It’s also a quick and easy project where the yarn does most of the work. Our featured yarn is self-striping and lends gorgeous textures and colors that blend beautifully. But you could also raid your stash and blend scrap yarns for a gorgeous effect.

It starts with some no-brainer knitting in-the-round, then we show you a simple trick to apply a rectangular base without sewing. The design features screw-on, reusable handles for simplicity. To finish, the optional pompoms add a touch of whimsy, and our bag lining tutorial will help ensure that your stylishly slouchy project is top notch.
