My new ‘Breton’ Bag design was inspired by a holiday to Brittany in France. The crisp Breton stripes express classic Parisian style; clean and stylish in its graphic simplicity. Make your bag with in the traditional white and blue sailor-like stripes for a touch of Riviera Chic or go wild with different colour variations; either way will result in an aesthetically appealing bag.

Pattern is written in UK and US terms and includes explanations of all stitches and abbreviations. Guidance on adding lining and a magnetic clasp also included.
