Lopi Tote Knitting Pattern (PDF)

$2.00

The Lopi Tote makes use of bulky yarn and elegant, screw-in handles to create a deep bag with a wide base that knits up quick. Since the designer is one of those dorks who can’t leave the house without her adult security blanket of a work-in-progress, she designed this bag specifically for carrying her projects with her on the go.

Description

SKILL LEVEL
Easy

YARN
2 skeins Bulkylopi yarn in Ash Heather [100% new wool. 100 g (3.5 oz) approx. 60 m (66 yd) per skein]

NEEDLES
US 15 (10 mm) circular knitting needles

Using the magic loop method with long cords (for what it’s worth, the designer used 40” needles) is recommended as the circumference of the bag varies throughout its body.

NOTIONS
• scissors
• tapestry needle
• stitch markers
• clear nail polish (optional – for securing handles)
• Jūl 16” Forager Flat Screw in Handles in Truffle
• basic sewing supplies for lining your bag (optional)

FINISHED SIZE
The Lopi Tote is 16” in length. Laid flat, the top of the bag measures 8“ across. At its widest point, the bag measures 14” across laid flat. All measurements were taken after wet blocking.

GAUGE
8 sts & 12 rows over 4” [10 cm]. Gauge is not critical for success for this project as it’s not a fitted garment.

“You’re telling me words can be pronounced in “You’re telling me words can be pronounced in different ways and mean the same things?!” 👀 Posting this here, just to make it clear: when anyone says skayne, skeen, or skyne, it can be safely assumed we’re talking about a bundle o’ yarn,  a SKEIN. It’s not necessary to shame someone for using a word that is known to have MULTIPLE common pronunciations. 🧶
.
.
Can you plz comment sharing how you say SKEIN and where you learned it? The OED happens to say SKAYNE, but it’s not a personal attack if someone says SKEEN and you say SKYNE or even Saskatoon. I’m legitimately curious. We don’t all knit or crochet the same way, and craft evolves a bit like language - it is passed on. There is so much value in having conversations about & embracing these variations! ✌🏻

Sometimes my weekend projects involve hair rather Sometimes my weekend projects involve hair rather than yarn. Here’s the latest mediocre-but-improving result of my slow quest to learn to set vintage inspired curls. 💇🏼‍♀️ I’m hoping to be able to wash my hair less using a regular vintage set, but we’ll see if it ends up being practical. 😆 Hair frustrates me so much more than crafts!

Do you also style your hair using vintage methods? If you have any tips for vintage hair styling or good resources to share, please do!
