100% Flax Ditty Bag.
The concept behind this bag was to make a bag entirely from Flax products.
The body of the bag is made from 18oz Flax canvas, and is 300mm x 175mm. The stitching on the bag is done with Italian, hand spun Flax sewing twine.
There are 6 Hitched grommet eyelets around the top of the bag, to which the lanyard is Spliced.
The grip is of Flax and contains sections of SCOT and POT Ply-Split braiding, Mathew Walker knots, Turk's-Head knots and a 4 strand square plait loop.
The slider is a Pineapple knot of flax and the button on the base is a Star Knot. There is a short, seized grommet lanyard on the handle.
This bag was put up as a prize in the Super Raffle held at the 25th Anniversary meeting of the IGKT in Farham.
