Elisa's Nest Tote began with the Climbing Trellis lace pattern, which Italian knitter and blogger (and expectant mama) Elisa transformed into a beautiful knitted bag. She calls it her "No More Plastic Bag, Thank You!"
This simple pattern can be knit with just about any cotton yarn and any needles. The stretchiness of the lace and the strength of the cotton yarn makes it elegant and durable.
It is so easy, as Elisa says: "There's no need to gauge or a particular instruction to follow, just your creativity."
The Nest Bag is perfect for transporting your favorite knitting books, latest flea market finds, or a picnic of fresh pane e formaggio. We would choose this lacey tote bag over plastic any day!
Elisa shares the pretty pattern on her entertaining blog, 2nd Floor. She kindly let us post the pattern on the Purl Bee, too. You can find Elisa's Nest Tote in our Project Journals.
Thank you Elisa!
