We’re starting to get pretty excited about the upcoming weekend travel season: leaf-peeping getaways, jaunts to the apple-picking orchard, and the trip home for Thanksgiving. In preparation, we’ve sewn up a new set of our classic Overnighter Bags, now in a warm and natural palette of Purl Soho’s Warsa Linen.

Warsa Linen is a wonderful fabric for a bag, since it’s strong and sturdy but still fairly lightweight and unbulky… Plus, it’s totally beautiful. The Overnighter Bag is a very straightforward sew, so don’t let the zipper intimidate you.
