Navy blue Harris Tweed slimline crossbody bag with embroidered Loughtan sheep in Shocking Pink.
There’s not always a need to carry a large bag around with us – when we are out shopping for example or at a party. This lovely soft, unstructured bag – which can be used as a shoulder bag or a crossbody – is the perfect size to put your phone, cards and other essentials in when you are out and about.
It’s made from navy blue Harris Tweed and embroidered with our native rare breed sheep here on the Isle of Man – the Loughtan. (Although I have to say they are not usually pink!)
It measures approximately 9 inches (23 cms) high by 8 inches (20 cms) wide and is lined with 100% cotton in a toning blue floral pattern. (Except for the bright pink contrast in the front pocket!)
It closes by means of a simple magnetic closure on the flap which also secures the slip pocket on the front (ideal to put your parking ticket) and the contents (there’s another slip pocket inside too for cards, receipts etc)
The strap (made by me) is adjustable and is made of leather with matching webbing reinforcement on the back (a trick I pinched from a well-known bag designer!) This means it is extra strong and does not stretch. It is around 60 inches long and features two little silver tone heart shaped rivets.
It is a bit of an inter-Island collaboration really as it was made by me here on the Isle of Man from world famous Harris Tweed woven by a weaver on the Isle of Lewis.
Happy. happy December!
December already? Unbelievable!
For those of you who celebrate Christmas it's deep-breath-and-plunge-into-shopping-time.
Now I don't know about you but I am always seduced by the idea of Christmas Shopping in the High Street, laden with brightly wrapped packages, stopping for Egg Nog or mulled wine while Christmas songs play and snow gently falls...… but I must say - in all my years - it has NEVER been like that😊 Nowadays I am more likely to be entranced by the possibility of shopping at home in my jammies, sipping a huge mug of tea or whatever in front of the log burner, half watching ancient Christmas movies on telly. But - I hear you say - I want to shop local this year! Ad this, my friends, is where Cinnamon Embroidery comes in! Everything on my page is unique and handmade solely by me at home in my own studio.
