I designed this bag to be very spacious for knitters, though it would serve equally well as a large handbag if you like a lot of room! This bag measures a whopping 19" wide and it is 11" high. Due to the darts, this bag will hold quite a bit. The strap is a tan colored faux suede with a detailed topstitching and silver buckles at the sides, measuring 28" long. The lining is a sage green striped fabric and there are two roomy pockets. The bag is complete with an Earthwood Pottery button to close the flap. You won't be disappointed in this one!!
