small-shoulder-souk bag

Two new small-shoulder-souk bags.

Especially for the upcoming Cool Crochet Workshop in Marrakech in October, I designed a small crochet project for the first day.
A cross-body bag in two different versions, made with Moroccan cotton and wool from the Medina. Small, but not too small, with a shoulder strap and fringes.

For each workshop, I try to design at least one new item and a new crochet technique.
It's always the trick to create a day project that can be done in a few hours.
Furthermore I like it when everyone has the possibility to add something personal to the design, besides the use of color.
These two shoulder bags I've made recently and I use them almost daily.

My old trusty bag is just about to fall apart, after years of daily heavy use.

Finding a good replacement wasn't easy.
The new bag must satisfy these requirements;

- baggy
- made of leather
- easy cool color
- not looking brand new
- not ridiculously expensive
- long handles
- and the most important: a bag that can carry all!

I've found it!
