The Best Knitting Bags



Knitting bags come in all shapes and sizes. Choosing the right one is important because your bag is an essential part of your knitting kit.

In my opinion, good knitting bags:

* Are very spacious

* Have numerous pockets

* Have smaller bags that you can remove

It is amazing how much room a knitting project, a few skeins of yarns, a knitting book, needles and other extras take up. That is before you have even started thinking about popping in your wallet and phone!

There are numerous different styles on the market and you need to find one to suit you. However, you will want a bag that is made of durable material and a popper is advisable rather than a zipper (so that your knitting doesnˇ¦t get caught!).

Personally, I like squashy bags with handles that are long enough to slip over my shoulder. That way, I can carry around as much or as little as I need very easily.

Here is a small selection of bags that I have picked. There is one to suit any budget.

1. If money is no object, then my knitting bag of choice is The Knitter's Satchel by Jordana Paige. It is so stylish I would be happy to use this as an everyday handbag, so the fact it fits in my knitting is even better! Also, it comes in such a great range of colors that you can choose something fun like this version in deep red:



2. For those with a mid-range budget and who are looking for a very roomy bag, have a look at the Knitter's Tote Pumpkin. It has outside pockets for your yarn, inside pockets for scissors etc, elastic bands for needles and an adjustable shoulder strap.



3. I think that backpacks are great for younger knitters or those who are constantly on the move. If this sounds like you, then this great Needle Arts Backpack might be just what you need. It has a carrying handle and the backpack straps can also convert into a shoulder strap. There are storage areas for needles, a bottle, a cellphone and even keys!



These few bags will give you a taster of what is out there. Take your time and pick the perfect bag for you.
