But be warned, your friends will be begging you to knit one for them too! Finished size is 12" tall x 9" wide at the base x 22" wide at the top.
Knit the Bucket Bag designed by Marta McCall with 880 yards of Bulky Weight Feltable Wool for the Main Color and 220 yards for the Contrast Color. Suggested needles are US 15 (10mm) 24" Circular Needles. You will also need Stitch Markers, a Tapestry Needle, a disposable razor (for shaving felt, if needed), Handbag Handles or 2 Buckles and two 3" x 28" strips of suede, 1 skein of black embroidery floss, rubber cement, 1 large nail and hammer, and a washing machine for felting.
