Whether you’re headed down to the park for an ice cream or off to shimmy the afternoon away at a festival, this boho beaut is sure to become your essential summer companion.

Keep it simple and all one shade, or stand out with a bold fringe and multiple stripes. If you fancy a hippy-ish, homespun vibe, make the fringe out of all your odd bits of yarn – this has the added bonus of being a great stash buster.

The suggested strap length should allow the bag to sit comfortably on your bum when worn cross body, but you can adjust to whatever length you like.

This pattern is designed by Serena Aspi and was first published in Mollie Makes magazine issue 53.
