Unbiased
by Stephanie Shiman


This is the bag that started my love of recycled silk yarns.  Easy to knit, it is made of four panels to show variations of colors. 

Pattern originally published at Knitty.com.  Kit includes pattern booklet with instructions for deeper variation and optional lining.

Use the needle sizes to give you the best fabric--knit to size, not to gauge. (Generally a needle size US 8-10)

  Pattern Booklet  $5.00 

Kit for bag as shown (400g Kathmandu Original)  $35.00

Kit for deeper version (600g Kathmandu Original) $50.00

 

Triangular
by Stephanie Shiman

Easy to knit in three pieces, this bag is designed to show the fabulous range of color variations in sari silk yarns.  Use skeins of contrasting colored yarn for a more dramatic effect.  Assembly is easy, due to the scrappy nature of the yarn.

Because recycled silk yarns are handspun, they can vary a bit in gauge and weight.  This pattern is designed to be knit by size, not by row count or gauge, making any yarn suitable.

Free knitting pattern available for download here or purchase pattern booklet below.

Requires 400 grams of Recycled Silk Yarn.
Use a needle size that gives you a sturdy fabric, any gauge.  Usually size US 8-10.
