Roadie Mini Tote PDF Pattern + Tutorial

The Roadie Mini Tote bag is a small travel bag, but still is packed with tons of features to carry everything you need from your water bottle, wallet, and tablet with its padded sleeve. It has a key ring to ensure you don’t lose them at the bottom of your purse.
