Adventure Bags in Three Sizes
Materials Needed:
Because these bags are unstructured, they are best worn like garments -- they come alive on the body. The soft drape of each bag makes it relaxed enough to travel with you on any adventure, from the urban landscape to the terrain of an evening out, or on a spontaneous trip over a long weekend. The big bag is big enough for your yoga mat or a blanket, a change of clothes, a loaf of good bread, and bottles of wine and water... all at the same time.
