The Ultimate Knit Tote

Technicolor Shopper by PetiteKnit, Sandnes Garn Double Sunday,
colors Camel, Whipped Cream, Ballet Shoes, Statement Green

The Technicolor Shopper by PetiteKnit is the ultimate knit tote that will carry everything from your latest project to sunglasses, snacks & a good book.

The pattern is knit in the fabulous Sandnes Garn Double Sunday; a soft, yet durable, non-superwash yarn spun with 100% Merino wool. The plied, DK weight yarn has a plump, round strand that delivers crisp stitch definition to show off textured stitches, cables & colorwork.

The cleverly designed bag is worked bottom-up, featuring a slipped stitch pattern that gives the piece a cool, woven look. Fun to knit on size US 11 needles, the bag is knit with three strands of yarn held together.

The gradual color transitions are achieved by continuously changing between the different colors of yarn held together! PetiteKnit patterns are always well written with the color changes thoroughly described in the pattern. Follow the method of changing colors described in the pattern or use it as a guide to inspiration & create your own signature look. We might need a different color combo for each outfit....
