What do you do when it’s 99° outside with a heat index of 111? I don’t know about you, but I head down to the basement and start creating things.
This is the “Emily“ bag that I just finished, the pattern from Ellie & Mac. The pattern has two sizes, but I made the large one first and it’s with made with materials I already had on hand. It can hold everything I need for teaching my Water Fitness classes – assuming I ever get back to doing so – and more!
It has two exterior slip pockets, one large interior slip pocket with a smaller zip pocket, and two – count them, two! – pockets for water bottles. (I put my shoes in them and my water bottle in the slip pocket.) The sides have magnetic snaps inside for when you don’t need as much space, there is a tab with a D ring for keys, and everything zips closed for security.
