The Patchwork handmade shoulder bag is just that a patchwork of woollen fabrics from Shetland wool to felted wool. There is a delightful mixture of greys, greens and burgundy and I have top stitched in grey and green.

The back of the bag is a herringbone in Shetland wool and it's the same fabric I made the shoulder strap in. I have made the strap wider in the middle so it sits nicely on your shoulder.

The bag is lined in a soft purple cotton and there is an internal pocket in the Shetland wool lined in cotton.

With the patchwork flap there is a magnetic fastener making it secure and I have handsewn on two old buttons to add a finishing touch.

Every stripykat bag is designed and lovingly handmade by Katie Brown. Buy British, buy stripykat.
