Knitting Pattern: Cross Body Bag with Tassels

Sirdar's new Festival Collection is inspired by the 70s.  Designed as a cross body bag, the chain texture is knitted using slip stitch and the strap is created with a simple garter. The two tassels finish it off with some flair and give it a retro look
