Store your homemade bread in a linen bag made especially for it! This project makes two draw-string bags that measure 12.5" x 18". They use 20/2 linen sett at 24 epi. Two colors are used-natural and half-bleached-for a subtle, elegant look. The pattern is an 8-harness color-and-weave effect where ends of two colors alternate both in the warp and the weft. Instructions are given for sewing the bag and making the drawstrings.

You will need:

• 15.5" weaving width
• 8 harnesses
• 12-dent reed
• 361 heddles
• 2 boat shuttles and bobbins

We used 20/2 linen in natural and half-bleached.
