Berroco Tahoe is a stunning backpack knit in Modern Cotton,
a blend of Pima cotton and modal rayon, beautifully twisted to showcase stitch
patterns and a soft hand, and Summer Sesame. The bag is knit with yarns held
together and worked in the round with an all-over textured pattern. The I-cord
drawstring and straps are worked separately and then sewn on. The textured design
is charted and written out.
