While we love knitting (and yarn and crocheting, too!) some of our products aren't just for knitters. Our fabric bags are colorful, durable, and washable - made from stunning hand-printed fabrics in a variety of styles, they are ideal for many different uses! Read below for 3 non-knitting ways to use these bags.
1. When you travel, it's important to keep all of your vitamins. supplements, and other small things contained and all in one place. The small zipper pouch from the Amber line is great for teas, Emergen-C and other small things you might need when traveling, and want to be able to reach quickly.
2. Another organizational/travel tip is to use one of the large zipper bags from the Joy line as a makeup bag or dopp kit. Keep small toiletry items inside along with make-up, travel-size shampoos or lotions, or a small hair brush. This will help clean up and dress up your bathroom counter with a cute fabric bag.
3. If you are into other fiber arts like embroidery or needlework, a medium zipper pouch from Amber line is good for containing other tools of the trade, here we have embroidery floss, some wooden cross stitch blanks, scissors, and other small notions.
Click here to see all of our fabric bag options on the Knitter's Pride website. If you already have one of our fabric bags, we'd love to see how you are using them - show us over on Instagram and use the hashtag #knitterspride!

This case would be PERFECT for the tools I need to work on tapestries, including bobbins, ruler, needles, scissors, etc. The Amber pouch would accompany a small tapestry loom for meetings and other travel.

A little boring perhaps, but I'd use it to carry my knitting notions (scissors, guage ruler, needles, stitch markers, etc.) SheilaOKeefe on rav
ReplyDeleteNotions, sock knitting...
ReplyDeleteRavelry: ReannaLynne
I always take a project with me whenever I leave the house and this would be great for all the small parts or crochet hooks. Sizzy on Ravelry
ReplyDeleteI would use it for my notions. I'm always losing track of them. It would be nice to have them all in one handy place. Savannagal on Rav.
ReplyDeletenorth4me2 on Ravelry
ReplyDeleteI would use it for all my stitch markers, measuring tape, darning needles and scissors. I keep losing them around the house.
I would use this bag to hold my knitting accessories like measuring tape, crochet hooks, darning needles, scissors, pen, and notebook.
ReplyDeleteknittingdancer on Raverly
I have been wanting to make knitting kits. Pouches that contain all the accessories I need when knitting, but are too usually to excited to gather at the moment. Tapestry needle, waste yarn, stitch markers, scissors, pen, paper, lip balm, and more.
ReplyDeleteI think I would make this my knitting zen pouch.... A tea bag, some ear buds, hand lotion etc....

I would make a new notions bag of it - with all the small tools I can fit into it. Then I would put it in my car for those (too many) times I have remembered my knitting on a trip but forgot something I'd taken out of my notions bag.

ReplyDeleteI would probably use it for notions.
ReplyDeleteMargostitches on Ravelry
Knitting notions for sure. Can't have enough places to stash needles & notions. Rav amchart
ReplyDeleteI love that first idea of a travel pouch. I would probably fill mine full of lozenges, emergen-c, and other sorts of things people like to have when traveling, and then leave it in my guest room for when we have people over.
ReplyDeleteSo many ways!!! For my purse yo jold cosmetics, or pens and pad of paper, or snacks!!! Love it. Braeburnknitter on Rav
ReplyDeleteA perfect place for knitting and stitching notions that are always escaping. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeletedeblyn153 on RAV
For everything! Tea, notes, headsets, scrunchies.....

ReplyDeleteI'd love one of these to organize my backpack for work (and red's my favourite colour!).
ReplyDeleteThis would be a great "to go" kit for all the knitting essentials.
ReplyDeleteI would use it for my sock project. But when I am not knitting I would use it to keep my weight watcher snacks in.
ReplyDeleteThis bag looks like a portable sock knitting bag, for my KP circs, yarn, row counter, scissors, etc. bikrgran
ReplyDeleteI would love one of your wonderful bags!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a perfect notions bag and depending on the size, a great place to keep a small project, like socks or a hat. Thanks for the chance!

ReplyDeletePerfect for a sock knitting on the go. I always have a project in my purse.

I would have a few uses for it. I would use it for my knitting notions in my project bags. I could also use it for my tatting projects. Witatter on Ravelry.
ReplyDeleteI just bought a new knitting bag and it's sides are not as stiff as I would like. I've been thinking a bag within a bag would help me stay organized and also give more structure to the softer bag. Marja @marjact at twitter or instagram
ReplyDeleteThe bag would be great to corral the small weaving items and to carry bobbins when I travel with my rigid heddle.

Possibly for an embroidery project for on the go. Nice add to the knitting on the go!

I have been knitting knockers and love to give a pair in a beautiful fabric bag ....
ReplyDeleteRhinonotes (Rav ID)
I always take a mindless project to PT. Would love to carry it in one of these bags!
ReplyDeleteThese look great! No one can ever have too many notions bags.....
ReplyDeleteIve been making macrame friendship bracelets recently and would use one to carry the embroidery floss and scissors when I'm out of the house.
ReplyDeleteIf I didn't use it for knitting items, I'd use it in my purse to keep small things from getting "lost" lol. Rav- dinasmiles2
ReplyDeleteI would use this adorable pouch for all my knitting notions that I need for all my WIPs. I don't have enough notions to keep them with each and every project, so I need a central spot for everything!
ReplyDeleteI would use the smaller bags for knitting notions ..stitch markers and cable holders,etc..the larger size may fit the sock in progress !
ReplyDeleteI love a new project or notions bag. I would use this one matched to a WIP. A good project bag - both in looks & function enhances my knitting experience. RavID:cteffenhart256
ReplyDeleteI would use the larger bag to hold notions..The smaller bag I would use for kleenex (I have 4 kids that always need a kleenex) and small treats for them like suckers or a chocolate.
ReplyDeleteI would use this beautiful bag for my gadgets: measuring tape, cable needle, scissors, stitch markers etc. Thanks for the giveaway! Ravelry - knittinnerd
ReplyDeleteI always have a project on the go; each bag would be for the notions i need for each project!
ReplyDelete:)
Ooooh, I adore pouches. Since I prefer to use non-purse bags as purses (like messenger bags or laptop bags), I'm always needing pouches to keep small things find-able, like pens and pencils, nail-clippers and other essentials, tools (I make jewelry), gum and breath mints, etc. And I need a bag for my colored pencils, suddenly, since coloring is now a thing! RavID: jenonymous
ReplyDeleteI like to keep my electronic doodads -- chargers, adapters, etc. -- in zipper bags when I'm traveling! Ravelry: I am knitorious
ReplyDeleteI would use it for a variety of things, including as a project bag for small knitting projects like socks, a clutch, or even to hold small items like toiletries, vitamins, electronic cords, etc. for travel. Thank you for this opportunity! :)
ReplyDeleteI would definitely keep it in my purse with all the small things that normally sink to the bottom and never can find when needed. And people would definitely comment on how cute that bag is!!
ReplyDeleteI would use this adorable bag to organize my meds for travel. I take a lot of medicine and don't have a bag that works well so all the bottles tend to get tossed in whatever large bag or suitcase I'm using which sucks in an emergency because I end up having to dig for my life saving meds. Being on disability doesn't allow me much extra income to buy extras.

DeleteThis would be great to carry my iPod, earphones, etc when I head to the gym. mrschknlvr on Ravelry
ReplyDeleteWho can't use another little bag... for a phone charger, or ear buds... can't have then tangled in my yarn!
ReplyDeleteI love a stylish bag for knitting notions - they jazz up the knitting!
ReplyDeleteSrapoport@rogers.com
I am not sure if my comment published... but I would use this lovely thing for my knitting gadgets, a spare crochet hook or two for emergency repairs, my Kindle Fire cord ... and a spare chanter reed for my bagpipes. Hey - ya never know!
ReplyDeleteAside from all the fiber-y uses, it would be a great way to keep all those errant coupons floating around in my purse rounded up in one place, where I could actually find them and actually use them! Ha,mha!
ReplyDeletekathy@sheepthrillsfarm.com
After purchasing a ton of stitch markers for a large blanket that required four markers per square while they waited to be put together, I have a LOT of stitch markers that now need a home :)
ReplyDeletemoolene on ravelry
Besides using them for holding my knitting projects, I use little bags like these for when we go to our little shack in the woods, to hold my toiletries and medicine.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! The Amber pouch would be perfect to keep hand sanitizer, pacifiers, and other odds and ends in my grandson's diaper bag. I'm always digging for things! And, red is easy to find in a deep bag. (conniecrill@gmail.com)
ReplyDeleteI like to keep all my knitting notions together in a bag for each project. I also have a spare bag ready to go with scissors, stitch markers, a crochet hook, a tapestry needle, etc. so I can just grab it if I'm out the door in a hurry. This stylish bag would certainly step my game up a notch! (amalya on Ravelry)
ReplyDeletePerfect for my extra spinning doodads and extra roving for travel
ReplyDeleteI love this lovely bag I will use it to carry s sock project...thanks
ReplyDeleteRav: Fancygail
I keep an extra bag of notions in the car so I can squeeze in every extra bit of kitting time I can. It allows me to get knitting g done faster and I can ignore my husband's sporting events on the radio. sherryglover1 on RAV
ReplyDeleteI often travel with small hand sewing. I am a quilter and this bag would be great for hexagon parts and tools for my hexie blocks. Everything in one place!!!
ReplyDeleteThis adorable little bag would be perfect for so many things, I am an organization freak so there are numerous ways I could use this, for my knitting supplies, for all that loose stuff floating around in my purse, it could be for parts and pieces of all my tech toys. Soo many ways
ReplyDeleteFirst and foremost, I'd use it as a sock knitting notions pouch, but I'd throw in extra things like a nail file, emergency medication, and hair clips. (Zoei on Ravelry)
ReplyDeleteThe ideas are endless! Makeup kit, crochet notions bag, earbuds and charger for my cellphone, it just goes on and on. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI would use this for my knitting tools that I like to carry with me...much nicer than a clear plastic baggie 😊
ReplyDeleteRavelry: NWquilter49
Already use a small zipper bag for knitting notions and an even smaller, quilted one just fits my iPod and earbuds. I do a fair amount of "plane knitting" so organizing and keeping things contained is vital!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I didn't realize you had these gorgeous cases! I especially like the Amber case shown above and wish you had more like that (I like being able to see what's in the case so I can be carrying multiple cases and find the one I want quickly). I am super-excited about the pretty cases for interchangeable needles. I currently have three (!) sets of KP interchangeable needles and at least 20 FCNs. Any chance of getting an expandable case for interchangeables, and/or a "hybrid" to hold both ICNs and FCNs? Love, love, love your products!
ReplyDeleteI would use it to carry my chemo meds in! I would be a pretty and practical way to always have them with me.
ReplyDeleteI would use it to carry notions for knitting while traveling- looks like the perfect size!
ReplyDeleteI would use this in my knitting bag but not for my knitting things. I would use it for my personal items like my hand creams, hair ties scent tin etc.

I try to use fabric bags for everything (instead of plastic bags). I use them to organize things in my purse...one for meds, one for personal items, one of kids things. When we travel I sort kids toys into smaller bags for exploring. And of course I use them for all my sewing notions & projects!

ReplyDeleteThis bag would be brilliant for storing all the cables for my Knitpicks interchangeable tips.
ReplyDeleteI have a case for the tips but a bag to keep all the cables together would be great.
This would be a great way to organize my tools and notions for my knitting and beading projects.
ReplyDeleteTo carry my essential oils and samples that i like to keep with me at all times for refreshing, calming, and good health on the road
ReplyDeleteI would use it for my sock knitting
ReplyDeleteI would use these bags to organize my notions, to organize my interchangeable needles/cable, or for taking smaller knitting projects on the go!

I would use a small bag for tucking jewelry in while traveling. Nothing is better than having necklaces, bracelets. And earrings all in one place rather than scattered anout.

ReplyDeleteLove these ideas! I would most likely use this lovely zippered bag to hold my project requirements: small scissors, that CIBI needle case, a tape measure and other sundry items. But I also like a little bag for my toiletries when I go to my sister's place to record our knitting podcast. This would be perfect.
ReplyDeleteI would use this little bag to keep my knitting notions container, a 3"x3" post it pad, a pen and my craft gloves (for when my hands hurt) all together. It's just too pretty not to be in my knitting tote bag!! Laughingwolf on Ravelry

I would use one of these bags for cosmetics when I'm traveling. I'don't keep my favorite teabags in one of them when eating out. I'd keep bandaid, file, nail clippers, etc in a small bag while traveling.
ReplyDeleteI would use one of these bags in my car. I always keep an emergency pet kit. It has dog treats, a dog leash, an absorbent mini-towel and an inexpensive plastic rain poncho.
ReplyDeleteThis kit is just in case I come across a dog running in traffic along a freeway, or god-forbid, hit by a car. (If it is a neighborhood area I leave the dog in it's familiar setting). The treat helps to bring the dog to me, the leash helps keep him under control and the absorbent towel & poncho is used if there is poor weather. Next I usually take it to a local vet.
This project bag would might coordinate with my car interior, and could even have a secondary use as a small pillow.
I always try to help others, even animals. My Mom taught me this.
