This classy number would look great for a night out the town with it's metallic, shimmery silver streak.
Welcome to my Black n Bling Collection
This Japanese Knot Bag will be your handy little 'fit just what you need' companion or it could be used like a hamper and fill it with other handmade goodness for a Christmas gift or a unique birthday present.
I've become obsessed with creating these Traditional Japanese Knot Bags
I came upon them while looking for something to make to raise some extra funds for my teenagers upcoming school trip to Japan! How crazy- we were lucky to go to the beach!
These Japanese bags were designed to hold small treasures, traditionally for tea ceremony. With a longer handle that threads through the smaller one, it creates a knot symbolising protection and often made using recycled fabric such a rice sacks.
It is cleverly, a self closing bag without the need for buttons or clasps.
I've created these using 2 strands of cotton blend yarn for durability, this is a sturdy bag you can throw around a bit without a care in the world.
Measurements- bag compartment approx 22cm x 18cm
I hope you like them and I hope you become obsessed with them as much as I have!
