A cross-body bag, a backpack, and a bike bag all in one. Combine that with the two different sizes, and the two views (one with a lid flap and one without) and you have here in this pattern 12 possible bags. All the options you need for going from bike, to hike to car. You can create the perfect bag to keep up with you on all your adventures. The larger size fits a 13” laptop, while the smaller size is perfect for carrying a tablet. Just enough room for your essentials, without so much room that you are tempted to bring the whole kitchen sink (over-packing is a serious problem for me). Wear it on your back to keep your hands free. Throw it over your shoulder as a cross body for quick access to your essentials. Or snap it onto your bike for easy sweat free riding. As adaptable as you are. The perfect bag for all your adventures.
This pattern's skill level is CONFIDENT (aka intermediate): I sew on the regular and I'm very familiar with using sewing patterns. I know my machine like the back of my hand!
