My new design for a Courier Bag woven on the Martha Stewart loom has gone live on the Lion Brand website
Here is the free pattern for the Courier Bag woven on the Martha Stewart loom:
[ Lion Brand 'Yarn Play' about Noreen Crone-Findlay's new design for the Martha Stewart loom ]
I am in love with these looms!
Last weekend, I made a video tutorial, showing how to weave a triangle of any size on the Martha Stewart Loom:
You don’t need it for this bag, but it’s VERY handy for other designs!
And, happily, I have more designs for these great little looms in the works!

Happy Weaving!

What a gorgeous bag! And the colours you have chosen work so perfectly together. Good job!
Thank you so much, Aleksa! Yes, I love those colors together, and the yarn is great! It’s hemp/cotton…. which just keeps getting better as you use it.
Yay! so excited about this, i discovered your site only recently and have got one of these Martha Stewart weave/knit looms coming for me at Christmas, the bag looks beautiful i`m sure i`ll be following your patterns once i get my loom in my hands thanks for all the inspiration
Hi Michelle
You’re going to have sooooooooooooooooo much fun with the Martha Stewart looms!
They are just awesome!
I love them and am having a wonderful time designing with and for them!
Happy weaving!
My daughter gave me the Martha Stewart knit & weave loom kit for Christmas (a day early). I looked on the Lion Brand website for a pattern and chose this messenger bag pattern as my first project. Then while I was watching various videos about using the loom, I found your videos, followed the link to your blog, and found that you had designed the bag.
I did not have the hemp/cotton yarn so I am making it with Bernat handicrafter cotton yarn in Hosta (green) and White Rose. I have finished the first three rectangles and am starting the base. I can already tell that I am going to love this bag when it is finished. Thank you!
Hi Anna
I love the bag, and hope that you will enjoy yours
I am going to make myself one of them, too – I didn’t get to keep the bag, as it went off to live at Lion Brand.
I have posted more videos on how to work with the Martha Stewart loom- the links are here on my blog.
Happy Weaving!!!
With just one pocket, the strap and tab pieces left to weave, I am not sure if I have enough of the main color to make the strap. I decided to assemble the bag up to that point and then see how much of that yarn is left. If I don’t have enough then I will just add a tab on the second side and make the strap with the colors reversed.
I am going to add pockets to the fabric lining to hold the smaller components of the Martha Stewart Knit & Weave kit as the larger pieces and a project should fit well in this bag.
