From the Pattern Designer:

A neat cross body bag, small but copious. Factotum has been designed to hold all your daily essentials. Fully lined, with two front pockets and a zipped closure. You can use leather or webbing for your strap.

Finished measurements length 20 cm, width 30 cm, depth at widest point 12 cm.

All seam allowances are 1 cm unless otherwise stated.

Skill level: intermediate.

Fabric suggestions – oilskin, dry oilskin, mid-heavy weight cotton canvas or drill, mid weight denim (8-14oz). For the lining we would suggest using either our 5oz organic dry oilskin, half panama cotton, or barrier lining.
