Crochet your own adorable blue goose cross-body bum bag (also called a messenger bag or fanny pack) with this downloadable PDF crochet pattern. Gerda is a practical goose with happy eyes, a cute yellow lining and a handy zipper. The main bag is 20 cm (7.75”) wide and 12 cm (4.75”) deep (not including the head and the legs), and the bag strap measures approximately 70 cm (27.5” ) but can be made to a custom length.
