Cervinia Bucket Handbag

Overview and Design

The Cervinia Bucket Handbag is a structured, elegant bag with finished dimensions of 10 x 12 x 35 cm. It is worked in three separate sections — a crocheted bottom, a knitted side band, and a crocheted strap — which are then sewn together during making up. The design makes striking use of a two-colour metallic stripe effect, alternating silver (shade no. 40) and gold (shade no. 41) throughout, creating a richly textured, eye-catching finish that is ideal for evening wear or special occasions.
