The Abracaduffle offers versatility for any outing, big or small. Whether you're heading overseas and unsure how much you'll bring back, dropping off supplies for a loved one in hospital, or just popping to the shops, this bag has you covered.
Unzip it, and it transforms into a spacious, carry-on-friendly duffel with plenty of pockets to keep everything organised. Compact when zipped down, two optional D-rings on the sides ensures you could still wear it as crossbody for hands-free convenience. When made entirely out of fabric, it's also washing machine-friendly, making it ideal for beach trips with the kids. With two carry handles and an optional crossbody strap, the Abracaduffle adapts to your needs effortlessly, ensuring you're always prepared, no matter the adventure.
Perfect for confident beginner sewers, this pattern offers a bound, domestic-machine-friendly design. It features a low investment in materials and minimal hardware, making it a swift project you can whip up at the last minute.
The pattern comes with a print-at-home PDF file, a projector file, and SVG files for cutting machines. Detailed diagrams in the instructions, rather than photos, guide you through each step.
