Refunds are not given due to the digital nature of the product.

What are the terms of use for Cheri Demeter patterns?

Each Cheri Demeter pattern and tutorial is licensed to the individual purchaser only. You may use it to make handmade finished items for personal use, gifts, or sale under the Small-Business License. Copyright and ownership of the design, pattern, tutorial, photographs, text, illustrations, and templates remain with Cheri Demeter Patterns. Purchasing a pattern gives you permission to use it under these terms, but does not transfer ownership of the design or files.

May I share, copy, or resell the pattern files?

No. You may not copy, share, lend, email, upload, translate, resell, reproduce, or redistribute the pattern, tutorial, photographs, instructions, illustrations, or templates in digital or printed form. Files may not be posted in groups, cloud folders, websites, social media, or file-sharing platforms. You may not sell printed copies, altered or redrawn patterns, derived templates, copied instructions, or sewing kits containing reproduced pattern pieces or tutorial pages.

May I sell finished items made from your patterns?

Yes. You may sell physical, handmade finished items made from a Cheri Demeter pattern. Each item must be handmade by you on a small scale and sold directly to individual customers through your own shop, handmade marketplaces, craft fairs, social media, commissions, or your own physical retail space. You do not need to purchase a separate commercial license, provided you follow the production limit and all other license terms.

How many finished items may I sell?

You may sell up to 100 handmade finished items in total per purchased pattern. This is a lifetime total for that pattern—not 100 items per year. The limit applies separately to each pattern you purchase. After reaching 100 finished items from one pattern, please contact Cheri Demeter Patterns before producing or selling additional pieces. Purchasing another copy does not automatically create a new 100-item allowance unless written permission is provided.

Do I need to credit Cheri Demeter Patterns?

Yes. When selling or promoting finished items, please include: “Made using a pattern by Cheri Demeter Patterns.” For online listings or social media, please also link to the Cheri Demeter Patterns shop or tag the shop account whenever possible. Credit acknowledges the original design, but it does not permit the pattern, photographs, instructions, or templates to be copied, shared, reproduced, or used as part of another tutorial or product.

May I use your patterns for sewing classes?

In-person sewing workshops are permitted only when every participant purchases their own individual copy of the pattern. One purchased pattern may not be photocopied, printed, emailed, displayed, or distributed for use by an entire class. Online classes, video tutorials, recorded workshops, digital courses, membership lessons, or social media tutorials based on a Cheri Demeter pattern are not permitted without prior written authorization.

May I use your tutorial photographs or instructions?

No. Photographs, illustrations, text, instructions, diagrams, and pattern pieces included in Cheri Demeter tutorials may not be used in your listings, social media, publications, classes, videos, websites, or other products. Please photograph your own finished handmade items when advertising them for sale. All original tutorial content remains protected and may not be reproduced, edited, republished, or presented as your own.

THIS LISTING IS FOR A DIGITAL PDF SEWING PATTERN, NOT A FINISHED BAG Cheri Demeter®

Create your own Japanese Knot Bag with a beautifully simple shape, a fully reversible design, and a clean, professional finish.

This beginner-friendly PDF sewing pattern includes two sizes—Medium and Large—so you can make a smaller bag for everyday essentials or a roomier version when you need a little more space. Its distinctive asymmetrical handles slip through one another to close the bag naturally, without the need for zippers, snaps, or additional hardware.

The construction is carefully designed so that all raw edges are enclosed. Once finished, the bag can be used on either side, making it perfect for combining two coordinating or contrasting fabrics.

Easy to sew, highly customizable, and satisfying to make, this is a lovely project for yourself or as a thoughtful handmade gift.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS PATTERN

• Fully reversible design
• Two sizes included: Medium and Large
• Clean finish with no exposed raw edges
• No zippers, snaps, or hardware required
• Full-size printable pattern pieces—no scaling or enlarging needed
• Seam allowances included
• Detailed, step-by-step photo tutorial
• Beginner-friendly construction
• Quick and enjoyable sewing project
• Beautiful in linen, cotton, velvet, canvas, and many other fabrics

FINISHED SIZES

Measurements are approximate:

• Medium: 12 in high × 11 in wide (30.5 × 28 cm)
• Large: 16 in high × 13 in wide (40.5 × 33 cm)

SKILL LEVEL

Beginner friendly.

Basic sewing-machine knowledge is helpful, but the tutorial includes clear photographs and detailed instructions to guide you through each step.

SUGGESTED FABRICS

This design adapts beautifully to different seasons and materials—from breathable linen and cotton for a relaxed summer bag to velvet or richly textured fabrics for a more refined look.

For best results, choose a woven, non-stretch fabric with enough body to hold the shape of the bag.

Suitable options include:

• Medium- or heavyweight linen
• Cotton canvas
• Denim
• Corduroy
• Velvet
• Upholstery-weight fabric
• Quilting cotton with interfacing
• Decorative or textured fabrics

You can also combine two different fabrics to create a contrasting reversible bag.

If your chosen fabric is lightweight, soft, or loosely woven, apply a suitable fusible interfacing before cutting or assembling the bag. The interfacing is optional when using a fabric that already has enough structure.

FABRIC REQUIREMENTS

Exterior fabric:

• Medium: 15 × 25 in (38 × 64 cm)
