Inspired by the unique basque architecture, this bag is a piece of art. You can pick, if you want to crochet both panels or repeat one panel two times to get a uniform design on both sides of the bag.

This pattern uses mostly single crochet stitches and is for medium advanced crocheters. During the course of the pattern you will keep all threads of yarn in between your stitches, so that they are covered by the primary color used for your stitch. This will make the pattern reversible. Each color is crocheted with yarn held double to create a tense and sturdy panel.

The pattern includes both instructions to crochet a Bag or a smaller clutch version with the same pattern.
