I made a couple of yarn bags. One is made using selvages from the edges of fabrics that I sewed to create this bag. I ended up sewing a white binding around the edges of this bag because I liked it better than the blanket stitching I did here, but I forgot to photograph the new edging.

| I also added a grommet to each side for yarn to come through. But again, I forgot to take a photo after I inserted the grommet. |

Inside the bag is a couple of divided slip pockets.
Next is a llama print yarn bag. I added a divided slip pocket on the outside front of this bag.

 |
| I also inserted some grommets later on this bag, but didn't take a photo of them, so here the yarn is shown out the top of the bag. |
 |
| Inside the bag has more divided slips pockets and it's roomy inside as you can see when I place this skein of yarn in it to show the scale. |
 |
| I added a zippered pocket to the back of the bag. |

These bags are wonderful! I love the one made out of selvages - great use for those strips.
ReplyDeleteThese are both great yarn bags, Daryl. Very roomy for a nice size project too. The one made with selvedge is, of course, my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThese bags are so nice. I've got to start saving my selvages :)
ReplyDeleteI have to admit I've never made a bag for yarn. My old stand by is placing the ball of yarn in a bowl when working. Otherwise its stored in a tote or grocery bag. These bags are a great idea. I like the addition of the grommets for threading the yarn through.
ReplyDeletei recently took a selvage class from you and it was amazing. i learned so much and now i'm addicted. i will NEVER throw away a selvage again. Your ideas are so inspiring. i Love how you used them to make so many different things. the knitting bag is fantastic. OF course i do love the llama one because it matches my zipper bag. you are so creative.

My daughter would love one of these!
ReplyDeleteI love these bags! Fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThat is really clever to add the grommet for the yarn!
ReplyDeleteI know a lot of people who would love that bag made from selvedges. But the llama one is cool too! Thank you for linking up to the Peacock Party.
ReplyDeleteYou said that you liked this pattern better than the lorelei jayne pattern (you like the handle better). What pattern does this one use?
