This bread bag is woven as a tube with Euroflax 14/2 linen. The pattern covers weaving the tube and casing, as well as an optional Inkle woven band for the tie. This was inspired by a Handwoven published pattern, a Baker's Bread Bag, in the March/April 2015 issue.
A quick project that would make a wonderful gift for a baker. If you’ve never woven with linen and never tried double weave, here’s your chance to do both!
