Calliope Coffee Bag
"Crochet and warm cup of coffee (or tea if you’d prefer) is a classic pairing don’t you think? And the new Calliope Coffee Bag combines the two in a fun and eye-catching way. This energetic bag is worked in 13 individually created squares (in 2 similar designs) that are arranged and seamed to create the body of the bag. A pair of 2-color straps finish the design in a simple but high contrast manner. This playful, customizable, and sturdy shoulder bag might become your favorite new project bag (who doesn’t need more of those). And don’t let the color work worry you, if you can do a single crochet you can make this design – just check your gauge and keep your tension even."
