Size-Inclusive Straps
The Naito pattern and kits have the option to add an extended crossbody strap for free to be inclusive of a wider range of body sizes! We believe no one should have to wear a bag with uncomfortable straps, or forego a fun project because the finished product isn’t functional on their body.

Watch me make the Naito!
@notaprimarycolor
"Attaching the circle base on other bucket bag patterns was always unpleasant, but this one aligned perfectly, and Ellie’s class showed how to guide it through your machine."
@fabric_scraps
My Naito with the extended strap fits perfectly!
😍 Maker Stories
"I can already tell this bag is going to be a perfect carryall - and the strap is so clever!"
My bag is finished and I'm IN LOVE 😍! Wow wow wow! The online class was invaluable for the trickier parts. Ellie is an amazing instructor and so clear! This thoughtfully designed bag was an absolute joy to sew.
“I bought a kit as a Christmas present to myself and been wearing it everyday since I made it. Also has proven to be the perfect bag to travel with.”
I LOVED making this bag! The instructions are super clear, and the online class is the perfect add-on for visual learners and people looking for extra tips and tricks. Super rewarding, and I can’t wait to carry it everywhere!

FAQS
Questions about the Naito? We've got you covered.
No! The Naito Bucket Bag can be made successfully on a wide range of regular home sewing machines. A walking foot attachment and/or Jean-a-ma-jig can help you power through bulky seams. You do not need an industrial sewing machine to make the Naito.
We recommend using a 100 denim needle (or non-stick needle if using waxed canvas) and all-purpose thread to match the main, accent, and lining fabrics.
The Naito Bucket Bag has tubular rivets, which must be set with a tubular rivet peening tool and a (non-rubber!) mallet on a hard surface, such as a slab of stone, metal anvil, or concrete floor. To set the magnetic snap rivet, you’ll need a magnetic snap setter. Finally, to make holes in fabric you’ll need a 3/32” drive punch, which is used with a mallet on a cutting board.
You can add these tools to your kit individually, or combined in The Naito Essential Tools Bundle for a discounted price!

The making time for intermediate projects is estimated at 5-7 hours. Having said that, each maker has their own pace and process. We recommend adding the online class for extra support and to ensure a seamless (no pun intended 😉) making experience.
The Naito is an intermediate-level project with an estimated make time of 5-7 hours. Intermediate projects involve a more in-depth making process. They'll teach you to work with a wider variety of tools and hardware techniques, like setting extra-strength tubular rivets.
Tubular rivets are much stronger than double-cap rivets. Since the Naito is a sling bag, the strap pulls away from the bag at the attachment point, which makes double-cap rivets unreliable, since they can pop apart when pulled with opposing force.
On the other hand, tubular rivets are made to withstand this force and will stay in place (especially when reinforced with leather on the backside of the fabric). So, in a nutshell, the Naito is designed to stand the test of time!
Please don't substitute double-cap rivets for the tubular ones when making the Naito. Also note: tubular rivets need to be set with a Tubular Rivet Peening Tool and a non-rubber mallet.
This bag is very versatile and came with clear instructions to make the sewing process go smoothly. I have made this bag for a friend but after seeing the finished product I am anxious to make one for myself!
I’ve been reading the pattern and deciding what fabric I’m going to use. The instructions are easy to understand, I can’t wait to start!
I bought the pattern only for the Naito together with a slab town video tutorial on my very first buy, I regret that i did not took the option for video with the Naito purely because i am a novice. The Patterns and the description book is Flawless.
