Despite being an avid crochetter and knitter for years, I've never owned a high quality thoughtfully constructed project bag. My current project bags are those cloth drawstring bags that new bed sheets come in. It seemed like a waste to throw them out, so they became my project bags.

Even when you aren't traveling, project bags are a must for corraling your knitting! I don't have a lot of project bags. Most of the ones I have I made myself, because honestly I'm cheap and have a glut of fabrics. But I have several of the 'Pretty Cheap Bags' that I use all the time. Made of flour sack and screen printed in various colors, these basics hold enough for a medium project. Another maker I love Wuthering Sheep. They have a 'Roly Poly' collection of embroidered animals. These bags are wonderfully designed with interior pockets. I have one I got from YarnByrds.

My favorite knitting bag is the one I made by following a crochet tutorial on how to make one. It has the handle loop that lets you knit while standing. The funny thing is that it was a mystery CAL and for a while nobody new what we were crocheting. 🤣The second one I use is the sturdy square grocery box with the cloth material and flip bottom. While being a passenger in road trips, I work on my wip and the foldable box is on the car floor. The kit you are giving away seems sweet to have😍especially for air travel❣️

I’m a new knitter, and I’m loving the Crafters Deluxe Storage Bag I got from Darn Good Yarn. It has dividers and pockets to sort and organize my yarns and knitting tools, and it came filled with lots of wonderful goodies to help me get started, including a selection of yarns, needles, and knit markers. But, it’s huge and more for storage than a project bag. So this would be wonderful for me!

I like to easily see the projects in the bag, so I typically just use/reuse a gallon size zip top bag to hold my pattern, row counter, and a ball or two of yarn. Once a project gets too big for the bag, I just leave it outside the bag or use a tote. The only “project” bag I purchased is from dellaQ, and it’s a simple small drawstring bag for a hat or sock. Thank you for sharing your favorites! ❤️🧶

My favorite project bags are the ones I make for myself. A basic lined, drawstring bag with a square or rectangular bottom depending on the bag size. The flat bottom helps cakes of yarn stay in place. I've made many for my knitting friends. My only commercial bag is a gray Fringe field bag. It's a great bag too, so it's nice to see that Grainline is filling that void.

I love your bags! They're so cool and roomy! I love all those pockets! Honestly, all of my favorite project bags are ones I've made or plan to make; I use colorful cotton fabrics. I used to knit lace shawls, exclusively, to give to my lovely sister-friends, then I added socks for me and my mom. Each shawl I knit for one of them came with a hand-stitched (by me) small project/storage/gift bag. I'd stitch the bag while the shawl was drying/blocking (I wet block). I kept the first bag I made for myself, and I still use it. I started knitting as a student and couldn't afford project bags AND yarn. So, I used ziplock bags until I made one of my own. By the way, I still stash my wool projects in ziplocks, then stuff the plastic bag into one of my Ayesha-made project bags, or some random tote. (I like to make sure they're protected from spills and wool-eating insects.)
