A clever crochet bag where classic gingham colourwork meets origami-inspired construction.
Designed by Carmen White - Off The Hook Creative, the Gingham Shift Bag begins as one simple tapestry-crochet rectangle. Carefully placed checks shift into alignment as the fabric is folded, transforming it into a relaxed shoulder bag with a beautifully continuous pattern.
The structured cotton fabric makes it practical enough for everyday use, while the three-colour design leaves plenty of room to create your own gingham palette.
The pattern includes two suggested colourways in 365 Days Cotton DK, along with a blank colour chart to help you plan your own combination.
