Raffi bag
Raffi, a very chic knitted bag to wear to work, to a dinner out and even into the weekend. The bag is knitted with an easy eyelet stitch pattern and garter stitches. A simple crochet finish brings it all together. You’ll love this bag.
Plus the handles can be detached and worn as a short necklace (1 handle) or long necklace or doubled as choker (2 handles). Very cool!
