I had a hard time feeding the string through once the bag was sewn. Next time I will put the string in before sewing that part.
And to make the edges of where the drawstring goes look neater, I think I will try sewing the edge down a tad bit.

Made 4 knitting project bags based loosely on this pattern. I would like tips on how to make the edge near where the ribbon comes out of the bag look neater. I used ribbon and knit i-Cord instead of matching fabric for my drawstrings.

These are a very very nice beginner project, and those capable of more complex layouts could easily turn these into some very cute purses for young girls. :)

I started off making drawstring bags, they are a great confidence builder when your new to sewing. Love the stripy fabric one too.
