I really like this!

I made this bag for a charity auction but I so want to keep it! The pattern is free from KnitPicks and the yarn is Cascade 128.

The bag has a black canvas lining (a pre-fab canvas tote turned inside out and sewn inside, ingenious!) and a magnetic closure.

It knit up very quickly. This was my first try at cables and they weren't nearly as hard as I'd feared. It felt sort of unnatural but was in no way difficult. The bag took me about two evenings to knit and another two evenings to finish. I think I will make one in every color.
