Product Details

The Bremen Town Musicians was one of my favorite fairy tales growing up. It was first published in Grimms' Fairy Tales back in 1819 and tells the story of four aging animals whose owners no longer find them useful. One by one, they decide to run away to the town of Bremen to become musicians. The group never actually arrives in Bremen; they trick a band of robbers and scare them from their home, taking the loot and home for themselves.

The design for this bag was inspired by the textures and colors of some fiber given to me as gifts. The black alpaca fiber from my sister Emily was not soft enough for next to skin wear, but seemed durable enough for a bag. The colorful contrast yarn was a crazy batt given to me by Natasha of Esther's Place Fibers when I moved that reminded me of a beautiful sunset as I spun it.

The pattern is available in Danish courtesy of Marianne Holmen- see Ravelry listing for a link to the website.
