“This fresh-looking bag is inspired by the coastline of Norway. The angular landscape, craggy coastline and crashing waves come together with energy at the bottom of the bag and the calmness of evening at the top. This bag closes with a hex frame that keeps your belongings snug inside. Fill with your knitting project or add an I-cord handle for easy carrying while sight-seeing.“ ~Joan
