faq about this pattern

  • Is this pattern beginner-friendly?

    • This pattern is intermediate level. Because of the detailed shaping, I wouldn’t recommend this project for a beginner. However, if you’re up for a challenge there is a video tutorial! 

  • Can I substitute the yarn? 

    • Yes. I would stick to a “tubular” yarn that’s similar to Lazy Days like Bernat “Maker” or Woobles

  • Is this a quick project? 

    • The Bubble Bag is detailed so it takes time! It’s a relaxing & repetitive project.
