This backpack features a zippered opening, thick straps, and double side pockets. This is an easy level knitting project and the skills you will need are working in Stockinette stitch, slip stitch, a small amount of intarsia for the top of the berry, seaming, and putting in a zipper. This bag is not lined but a lining could easily be added if desired."
