This is my fourth #08 bag, but the first in this amazing canvas Nu has curated for her customers. It is beyond any canvas I have ever seen. It is thick, yet malleable. Meaning it can be compressed to fit into a suitcase, yet snap back into a bucket shape in a jiffy.
The #08 roll top has all of the same features as the iconic #03, but in a size that lends itself to smaller projects. It is ideal for projects that I like to knit such as mitts, cowls and light weight shawls. Both sizes are ideal travel companions.
As knitters we are most fortunate that we have a large variety of project bags from which to choose. But to me nothing beats Hide and Hammer’s roll top design. It is versatile, easy to carry, adjustable to amount of yarn and projects, pockets in which to tuck my notions, sturdy well made canvas, beautiful leather straps, weather resistant, offers maximum protection and sharp design-all without the use of zippers! No matter the size, the roll top is the ultimate project bag for me.
