You are amazing. I bought this pattern around 5 years ago and I cannot wrap my head around Gail’s tutorial.

You will see I had a few hiccups myself 😀

This is super cool! Thanks for the video Chris. BTW the linked drink bag is no longer available but Amazon does have some alternatives.

[@simplyclassic]

Thanks for mentioning this. I will check it out and update the links!

Love the idea. Love all your videos. Never used a drink bag so not sure how the spigot fits thru the grommet opening. Does it just slide through? Then what keeps it from sliding back inside?

[@simplyclassic]

Many of them have a spout that you will have to push through the grommet. Also, with the weight of the liquid should hold it in place.

i'M not paying $17.23 for this pattern

[@simplyclassic]

Linda, when I pull it up on Etsy is says $12. Not sure where you are seeing the price as $17.23. That is a strange amount. I will check with Gail from American Stitchers, the creator of the pattern.

@@simplyclassicThat’s Canadian funds. Just looked it up. Not the fault of the pattern designer, just our horrible exchange rate. 😂
