The front and back of this bag are each worked in the round and shaped with short rows and strategically spaced decorative increases to form the octagon shape. Each piece is worked outward from the cast-on edge (worked in contrasting yarn to form the handle opening) to the bind-off edge (also worked in contrasting yarn). The front and back are joined with a wedge-shaped gusset of contrasting yarn along the lower half of the bag. The finished bag is felted in the washing machine.
