In the backbag will fit small toys,

snuggly toys and what the small
once need. Width: 19 cm (7,5
inch). Length from head to toe:
38cm (15 inch). Bag: w20 x h23
(7,9x9 inch). Depending or wool
size and crochet hook the size of
the backbag can vary.

Some tips:
1. Every Part will be worked in
spiral rounds. Each round will be
finished with slst.
2. Use a stitch marker. A little
thread (just use a different colour
from the main one) can help as
well to count the rounds. Place it
over the working thread and it will
be easy to pull it out.
