Lasenby Hebe Project Bag

Buy the Hebe Project Bag sewing pattern from Lasenby Patterns. Hebe is a versatile tote for your knitting and crochet projects. There are two sizes and two handle lengths to choose from. The small bag is perfect for a coffee shop knit morning, and the large bag is ideal to take away on holiday. Hebe can also be used at home as a basket, with the top edge turned down.

Hebe has lots of customisable pockets inside for needles, circular needles, hooks and tools, as well as your phone and notebook. There are loops for a scissors keeper and yarn feed. A double drawstring closure gently squeezes in your yarn (no zip for your yarn to get caught up in).

Note: This pattern is also available with a sashiko embroidery design here.
