handles,
instead of knotting the ends as in the original.
So I followed this version
and stitched the ends together....
and added a spotty handle.
This bag now holds 800g of yarn, needles and
pattern ready for my next knitting project!
Quick and very satisfying!
Happy sewing!

Ooo I love it..
Yes, I too love it, pretty & so useful! And such gorgeous fabric!
This is encouraging me to try bento bags again. I can see how the handle version would work better. Otherwise, the combo of outside and lining can be a bit bulky to tie.
Pretty fabric. What are you knitting now? Hows the hand healing?
So cute and very practical.
Quick and very cute which means very inspiring for me. I love it with the handle.
It's nice to have a quick (and oh so pretty) finish!! Thinking of you and hope you're healing quickly.
I love those bags that have the side seams and that folded look, and now I'm glad to have a name for them. Your Bento Bag is really cute, with that spotty hand-hold. Seems to me it would give you more room, too, rather than tying it down low. Great job!
Oh, that is a delightful variation, Susan! Love that extra detail of adding spots for the handle - so cute!
