Alice Bucket Bag & Backpack

THIS IS A PDF PATTERN, not a finished product.
With its cute and stylish design, Alice is perfect for everyday use. The pattern comes with two options: a bucket bag and a backpack and is big enough to hold all your essentials.
Alice bucket bag & backpack features a 3D zipper pocket on the front with built-in card slot pockets, ideal to store smaller items like tissues, mints, or lipstick.
Drawstring closure and stopper with grommets/eyelets at the top edge allow you to open the bag/backpack easily, giving you full access to the interior. The main compartment is fully lined and can hold a small notebook, wallet, phone, and umbrella. It features a large slip pocket, which can be divided into two or more compartments, so you can keep your belongings organized and a connector with a swivel hook for your keys.
The backpack version also includes a flap with a magnetic snap closure and a handle on the back.
Both, the Alice bucket bag, and Alice backpack have adjustable shoulder straps and a firm bottom with an option to add bag feet or decorative piping.
