Marie Antoinette – Raffia Bag Crochet Pattern – PDF

The ruffles make her unmistakable, the shoulder strap sets her free — Marie Antoinette is the little sister of the family, small in size but big in character.

Marie Antoinette is a crochet shoulder bag in viscose raffia, with a refined design that suits every age. The ruffles that define her give a romantic, playful feel without ever sacrificing style. Compact and practical, she is perfect for anyone who wants to carry a handmade piece with personality.

The bag is worked from a small oval base (approx. 21×8 cm). It is recommended to steam block the finished bag to soften the raffia and even out the stitches.
