Fabric Handmade Bags

Yoga Mat Carrier In Plain Weave with Weft Stripes by Sue Bleiweiss

The idea for this carrier came to Sue while in her studio. As she was standing in front of some cones of pearl cotton yarn, she happened to spy her yoga mat rolled up in the corner. Pearl cotton was the obvious choice to use for a handmade bag that Sue knew would spend its life in perpetual trips from closet to exercise room to the trunk of the car to yoga studio and back again. Woven in plain weave, the cloth will stand up well to repeated washings and daily handling.

How to Make Handmade Bags

Sturdy Rag Totes With Handy Inside Pockets by Dinah Rose

Inspiration for these sturdy, woven bags came from two earlier Handwoven projects. One was a diaper bag with lots of pockets. The pockets required weaving and piecing strips, but Dina wanted to weave a single fabric. A project for an inkle-woven cellphone case gave her an idea for easy pockets—the fabric on one side of the bag is extended and folded down into the bag from the top edge and then turned back up to become the pockets.

Bag Weaving Fun

Farkle Game Bags In Summer and Winter by Joan Sheridan Hoover

Farkle (also called "the dice game") is lots of fun. It requires no cards, the counting is easy, and it can be learned in just a few minutes. It also requires a bit of strategy. These little woven bags take longer to weave than a game of farkle takes to play, but they are sure to delight you every time you get out your dice.

Make Handmade Bags that are Practical and Stylish

A Felted Bench Bag for Weaving Tools by Deborah Shelmidine

When you have to sit and wait—in the doctor's office, at your children's sporting events, or on road trips—you can have fun weaving colorful fabrics on portable, easy-to-use pin looms. This project arranges woven squares in four different colors along the diagonal to make a handy bag to hang from the upright of a loom bench. Add a second handle, and the bag becomes a sturdy shopping tote.
