Sophomore Bag
details
-
The Sophomore Bag is part of the Sophomore series. A design collection that follows on from our New Beginnings series, making the transition from beginner knitting projects to regular knitting patterns easier.
Just like our New Beginnings designs, the instructions are very detailed, but they already include abbreviations so that you can slowly get used to the style of regular instructions.
New techniques that are not yet featured in the New Beginnings designs are explained in individual video tutorials. However, basic knitting skills (knit stitches, casting on, and casting off) are assumed.
The Sophomore Bag is knitted in rounds from the bottom up and can be decorated with a motif at the end, depending on your preference.
