Stocking stitch is used throughout. I-cord shoulder straps. Needle size 5 (3.75mm). Sport weight cotton yarn, used double.

Backpack is 9? x 10.5? (23x27cm) (Larger needle size will yield larger backpack.)

Fast and easy to knit, these small felt purses will add pizzazz to any outfit. Novelty yarn is knit and felted along with the wool to create a colorful textured fabric.
