Little Swift!

On the Bag family shots

Thank you. So many TB product owners have contributed pictures and video which have helped me in my purchasing decisions. We are all probably looking at things from different perspectives, and with different uses in mind.
I am glad that my pictures can help.

Thank You Very Much for your bag family shots

It really shows the scale of the bags in relation to one another, I am really grateful for that.

I have Swifts and I always wanted to know how small the Little Swift was in comparison, it is also great to see the Large Shop Bag set up in the same manner.

Both bags are on my list as I need to use smaller bags for everyday, on the go activities.


I love, love the interior pictures of the Large Shop Bag, they are the best, they should be pinned somewhere.



The others pictures are really nice too!

Your are a talented knitter/crocheter and your Mom is really pretty with her cute hat.

Thanks for sharing!

I also just added my Little Swift pictures to the Tom Bihn Flikr group. I'm totally and completely in love with my bag. I love, love, love how well it stands up on it's own. It looks so nice sitting on my side table (or anywhere I set it down!).

Thanks for the modeling shot. It really helps me to judge the size/proportion.

My daughter got sick. The weekend was a big blur. Things are looking up, though. And today I took my 16 year old to get his license and while sitting and waiting at the DMV, I had my Little Swift sitting on the floor beside my chair and was crocheting like a mad woman. It was awesome. The stuff sack works beautifully and the bag is a dream!

you finally got it!

Yea! Joyce. I am so happy for you, I was wondering if you had gotten it. I hadn't heard any update so I was starting to wonder what happened.

My box arrived today! W00T!!!
I will have to upload pics later as the home school is calling and it wouldn't be fair for me to do this over teaching my kidlets.
But a quick note. The Iberian large shop bag and stuff sacks are better than I was thinking. I cannot wait for my Ultraviolet ones!
The large Shop bag is not too oversized for my 5'2" frame. I can carry it from my hand and it is right about at my ankle with full arm extension, and over my shoulder it would hang nicely at my hip.
The regular sized swift in cork. swoon. It's so dreamy. The size is larger than I thought, but not too large. The fabric is nicer than the pictures, and I know that I am going to adore this bag. I feel already that like my little swift I probably won't be wanting a rival bag any time soon. The two fabrics complement each other well, and also work nicely independently.
I believe that today I have had the first of many bagasms. After I have some time to use them I will report back on my findings.

UPS came by as scheduled, but brought a package for my husband... not me! When I checked the tracking it said, "A first attempt was made, but customer was unavailable. A second attempt will be made." What? I've been home all stinking day! COME ON, UPS!!! I NEED MY TOM BIHN BAG!!!!!

Oh no!!!!!!!!!!! I feel your pain. My package better be delivered tomorrow. I will use backpack's notes to ensure that I get it.

Tips: keep the UPS tracking page on at all time,
park yourself in the room that has the best view of your walkway,
listen to the truck,
if something is delivered to another member of the household ask about your package using the tracking number.


Each UPS delivery person has her/his own style of delivering some knock loudly or ring, some leave the package at the door, some come in and knock softly so you miss them.


It takes only a few minute of not being on alert to miss a delivery, think taking the pooch outside, answering the phone on the other side of the house, checking up on laundry.


I feel for you, please show us the goodies when you get them.

Great suggestion on tying the straps together to enhance rigidity! Why didn't I think of that??
