Atlas Rucksack / Backpack sewing pattern
If you want to sew a casual rucksack or backpack with an edgy and modern look, then the sewing pattern for The Atlas Rucksack from Swoon Patterns is the one to chose. This unisex design can be made in any style and fabrics you prefer.
This is a great unisex design that works well for men and teens as well as for you. Of all the backpack sewing patterns out there, the unfussy design with the simple roll over top, means that this one is easier to sew than many, yet still has all the features and options you need. We love the expanding design for flexibility.
The Atlas Rucksack has the following features:-
- Adjustable backpack straps,
- Front closure straps,
- A large front zippered pocket,
- Top carrying/hanging handle.
And the end result is a rucksack that is wonderfully comfortable as well as expandable and fully adjustable. Stylish too! It doesn’t look like the sort of backpack a kid would take to school!
