Victoria – Raffia Bag Crochet Pattern – PDF

The ruffles make her elegant, the drawstring closes her with grace — Victoria is the elder sister, serious and refined, the one who never goes unnoticed.

Victoria is a crochet bag in X-Treme raffia with a bold character and a polished look. Like Marie Antoinette she shares the ruffles that make her unmistakable, but with a more structured silhouette and a drawstring closure that adds a timeless touch of elegance. Worked from an oval or rectangular faux leather base, she is the bag for those who seek style and substance in a single handmade piece.
