The Snack Packaway Racoon Bag was designed for the Simply Knitting Magazine issue 180.

The Christmas racoon bag is a charming little bag with an adorable face. The neck of the bag is closed with a drawstring and the head flips over and closed the bag shut and it secured with a button nose.

The mittens are a delight with little Christmas trees worked into them. If you are new to intarsia, theses mittens are great to practise on, because they are only small.

The little Santa hat is worked in one piece from the base of the hat to the bobble at the end.

I think this sweet bag will be a big hit with children, and a with the loop handle at the back, its perfect for little hands.
