Liliana from Sol de Eira made this dotty backpack for her young daughter. She shares the pattern on her blog. The straps are acutally wide ribbon, but if you can’t get ribbon in the right width you could also make some out of fabric. Go to her blog for the pattern.

Love this backpack, but when I go to the site I’m confused by the pattern piece sizes. Are these the actual sizes that should be cut? They seem too small.
Thank you

They seem small to me, too. The instructions sound like those are the actual pattern pieces, though she says they can be enlarged. If it was me, I’d probably enlarge the pieces to make the backpack a bigger size. Hope that helps! –Anne
