Befitting a Hitchcock heroine, the Depoe Bay Bag is a slouchy, feminine bag with surprising strength and beauty. Knit in three pieces and sewn together, the front and back of the bag are knit identically, except for a pocket opening on the front panel. The bag also features clever pleats, rustic cables, and plenty of bobbles to create a texture reminiscent of strewn pebbles and rocks across the ocean shore. Finally, the Depoe Bay Bag is lined with a heavy interfacing to protect the outer layer of knitted fabric, while decorative hardware and sturdy handles complete this textured tote.

Notions: Lining material and matching thread; 14” Purse Zipper; Sew-on Purse Handles; Optional: Purse feet/brads and 12” of faux leather or canvas webbing
