What better way to carry around your hand-painted yarn projects (or hand-painted purchases from your LYS...) than in a bag made with hand-painted yarn?! This beautiful tote, knit with Koigu's American Merino yarn (a scrumptious wool sportweight available Just at Jimmy's) and lined with a fun color-coordinated fabric, will fit your knitting or crochet things and other essentials in style!
