Crochet Kit Cherry Bag By Molla Mills

1| DESCRIPTION

Crochet becomes playful in the Cherry Bag, a kit that Molla Mills co-created with Made by You based on the premise of contemporary and practical crochet. The bag is made using the tapestry crochet technique, in a circular bottom-up format, and measures approximately 45 cm x 35 cm when finished, with snap button handles. The cherries add a fun touch to the look: wear it with a light summer dress or over a basic outfit that needs a pop of color.
