This tote bag is a one-off design that I made for my sister.
She originally presented me with a pair of her husband's old jeans and asked me to make them into a skirt. Unfortunately the reason that her husband was throwing out these jeans was a huge rip across the behind, and it was strategically placed so that I didn't have quite enough fabric for a skirt.
So, instead, I made a tote bag, for carrying around all of life's essentials on a casual weekend.
The bag is my standard tote size, 10 x 12 inches. It will comfortably hold A4 paper, or your favourite magazine. The handles are 25" long, and fit nicely over the shoulder. You can also carry the bag in your hand without it dragging on the floor.
There is a pocket on each side of the bag - the one on the front still has the original "Levi's" tag!
The bag is lined with a pretty blue t-shirt from my mountainous collection of "things to cut up".
Now to parcel it up and send it off in the post - along with my Dad's second Christmas glove. They took slightly longer to knit than I'd expected... sorry Dad!
