Over the past few days, I’ve had several requests for bags to fit quart size jars. I updated the Jars to Go Single pattern yesterday, adding a quart size. Lots of people like to bring salad in a wide-mouth quart jar, so there you go!
But I kept on thinking… why stop there? Wouldn’t a regular-mouth half pint be adorable? It’s not overwhelmingly useful for bringing lunch, but:
- Cute doesn’t need a reason.
- Would be great for those jars of jelly or jam that I KNOW you’re giving as a Christmas gift to the postal carrier, or the neighbor, or the teacher.
- You could bring a snack? Yogurt? Trail mix?
- Baby food? Especially if you make your own.
- Or a little one who wants a jar bag “just like mommy’s” or “just like daddy’s”?
Just a note: These photos show my prototype quart and half pint bags. You might notice that the half pint seems a little “tight”. I added a little height to the finished pattern, after making this one. So, no worries – bags made by the current pattern should be just right.
