The Crossway Bag Pattern by Studio M Squared

About this Pattern: Crossway is a clever, modern bag that does it all. You can carry it with both straps slung over your shoulder or as a backpack. Or just grab the small handle and go! We designed Crossway as a knitting project bag but it’s great for so many uses – the small bag is perfect for running errands or shopping, while the bigger bag is great for work or for heading to the beach or pool. Lightweight, sleek, and super cute, the Crossway bag will be your new favorite make!

Features: Both bags have a magnetic snap closure. Small bag has three divided pockets. Large bag has five divided pockets and a single pocket large enough for magazines or pattern books.

Finished bag dimensions:
• Small Bag: 12” tall, 13” wide at top, 7-1/2” wide at bottom, 5” deep (30.48cm tall, 33.02cm wide at top, 19.431cm wise at bottom, 12.7cm deep)
• Large Bag: 14” tall, 15” wide at top, 9” wide at bottom, 6” deep (35.56cm tall, 38.1cm wide at top, 22.89 wide at bottom, 15.24cm deep)

Note: Using Soft & Stable foam as a stabilizer gives the bag structure and allows it to stand up on its own – this quality is desirable for a project bag. For a less structured bag, you can substitute fusible fleece for the Soft & Stable.

Pattern pieces are included in the pattern if you do not have rotary cutting experience. There are paper patterns or a Piece ID List for those experienced with rotary cutting.
