The culmination of the ideas over time produce some different items.  Below are some of the things I've created just to show the ideas and provide some inspiration.

The Daily Go-To

Picture
This is my main carry-around bag and the first venture into bags with handles.  Bag size is 10"w x 12"h and the handle is jute only.  This was the first style to feature the 2 row jute handle that stretches to appear like a loose braid rope.

With Some Fringe

Picture
Continuing a similar style, found some usage for the extra handles that aren't used in the actual material.  Fringe along the bottom leaves shaping for the end user to create.  Bag size is 13"w x 11"h and the handle is mixed plastic and jute.

Size Matters

Picture
Created from large Target bags which provides a large amount of color.  Rather than using the standard width of strips with the N hook, these were about 50% wider strips and woven using a Q hook which allows for the much larger weave.  Overall this bag is 13"w x 9""h and is capped with green jute to give it a bubble-bag appearance.

Show Your Style

Opening the field into more design than just the color in the plastic.  This one shows the plastic/plasticy strap design as well as a test in adding designs.  Its almost like drawing on drunk graph paper, so its not neat by any means but can provide some interesting effects.  The flap bags give the best surface to work with, but it can be done on most items.  Latest experiments utilize the loop length to add some color design, however its not an exact science.

Messenger Bag

This bag was the first real foray into the new built-in handle design and this picture shows the in-use stretch that is normal.  Also a first in this bag is an inside pocket as well as the wider-braid shoulder strap.  Overall this bag is 13"w*10"h*2"d and is a good size for netbooks, tablets, and paper notebooks.

The Lunchbox Experiment

This is one of my works in progress.  It started out as an oops and went from there.  The greatest part about being non-pattern and just making things work is that no two will be the same.  The second row features the second version of the lunchbox experiment, which is currently listed for sale here and features a slightly different design with matching ends and better balanced.  The main body of the box is 9"w x 5"h x 4"d.

Carry-All

This was a request from a friend for a functional diaper bag.  Overall it is 14"w x 11"h x 5"d, features an inside pocket, and is made out of White w/ Red & Blue (Made in USA).  The strap is anchored with two short pieces reinforced with mason line and the handle piece is a mix of plastic and tan jute.

Zip It

This is the initial implementation of the zipper concept - Everything that makes it on to this page is essentially a "Proof Of Concept", or the alpha test.  This is a handbag that ended up  being a bit off-kilter however it works.  The handle is made but not yet attached, so it will end up being an easy shoulder size.  The second bag featured is the first to join the Bags page as available for sale - it is 11" wide at the top and wedges down to a 9"x4" base with a 26" strap.

Plarny-Yarny

Picture
The cut plastic material is commonly referenced as "Plarn", short for 'plastic yarn'.  After getting a couple oddball rolls of yarn, I decided to integrate it a bit more than just the trim pieces along the edges like the other materials I use.  Both of these bags are done with alternating or chasing rows of plastic and yarn which makes for a soft texture and a heavier weight overall material - the yarn was doubled as to match the plastic consistency.  The handle uses a single yarn woven with the plastic.  The top of the bags use a block of yarn to help keep the curve of the flap.  The smaller one is 8"x7"/24" and the larger is 10"x7"/26" and both are available on the Flap Bags page.

Around the Yard

Picture
Earlier this year I had a partial bag looking for a purpose.  I worked a v-notch into the front and had some Narcissus out from that needed saving from a weed patch so they found a great home here.

Grocery Fun

Picture
Recently I obtained some strapping pieces from a 2nd Hand Gala in Pike Place Market in Seattle and have since found a use!  These bags are a true crochet stitch so they are quite forgiving, the handles are attached around pieces of bamboo which are then stitched on using a hemp/cotton yarn.
