Drawstring bag pattern

This bag is knit from the top down on an Addi Turbo size 7-16" circular needle. If you use the Addi Turbo needle, you don't have to switch to double pointed needles, because the needle is flexible enough to finish the bottom. Some of our customers freak out when we tell them they have to use DPNs.

Using Reynolds Saucy, cast on 70 stitches. Place Marker and join. Knit stockinette stitch in rounds for 3 inches. Every 9 or 10 rows, switch to the Adornaments yarn and knit around until the Adornament yarn runs out. Then switch back to the Saucy yarn.
