Knitted bags today are more than just a fashion trend. They're a way to express style, character, and individuality. They easily fit into a city or vacation wardrobe, becoming the highlight or the foundation of an outfit, transitioning from everyday to evening wear and back again.
Shoppers and totes, crossbody bags and baguettes, backpacks, clutches, belt bags, pillboxes, and tote bags—a knitted bag can be anything. Rigid or soft. Simple or decorative. Made from raffia, cord, jersey, jute, cotton, or linen. But behind all this diversity lies one thing: a clear design.
This is not a collection of master classes or a catalog of ready-made models. This is a construction book, created for those who want to create and model, not just repeat.
Ekaterina Baklago offers a systematic approach to knitting bags: through the geometry of form, the logic of construction, and an understanding of the material. Any bag, even the most complex, can be broken down into simple elements—a circle, a square, an oval, a rectangle. Once you master this basic concept, you'll be able to assemble your own models—of the desired size, shape, and thickness, using the yarn you have on hand.
This book is about creative freedom and confidence in the final product.
What you'll find in this book:
- a system for geometrically constructing knitted bags;
- an analysis of all the basic shapes and their combinations;
- construction of bases, sides, flaps, and bodice;
- a classification of bag types and their purposes;
- a conscious choice of materials: raffia, cord, jersey, jute, cotton, linen;
- the choice of knitting tools and techniques, rules for reading patterns;
- an overview of fittings, lining techniques, and even the basics of branding.
