Carry-on bag

Next item sewn for the flight to NZ:
A bag for the Carry-on luggage.



I made the pattern after the maximum allowed measurements at Singapore airlines:
50 cm x 40 cm x 25 cm. That is 50 liter! I think it is huge. See the Knipmode magazine for reference. Of course in the picture it is filled and not quite that exact shape any more. And it may only be 7 kg (in the picture ist is filled with sweaters and weighs 6 kg).
The straps are long enough that I can carry it over the shoulder, but short enough that I can carry it in the hand without it reaching the floor.
It has one zippered and one 'open' pocket on the outside, and one zippered and one open pocket on the inside (for example for quick location of the zip-lock bag with the liquids).
The fabric is EtaProof, waterproof cotton.

flight pants

I made pants for the flight to New Zealand.



The pattern is from Loes Hinse, the Oxford pants.
I made the waistband lower, and made a combination of elastic and unelastic band in a tunnel.



The fabric is a dark brown ponte di roma knit from mainly rayon.
I hope these are as comfortable as but look better than sweat pants.
I will try them out on a ride on the night train next weekend.
They will go with the beige striped longsleeve I made last year and another brown-teal striped longsleeve I made in September from the same pattern, my TNT Zoela from Farbenmix.
