The Fish Scale Baguette Pattern!

This cute mini bag has been a long time in the making! It is our very first pattern by the talented crocheter Tori Kendrew, who I originally met through the fantastic Cambridge yarn shop Gather Here. When she was swatching out ideas, we both fell in love with this fish scale stitch and knew it would be perfect for this project. The stitch is a little tricky to get the hang of at first, so we’ve accompanied this pattern with many how-to photos. Once you get the hang of it though, it crochets up quickly! The Stargazer Silk yarn is perfect for this project, adding some sparkle and weight to the bag. The pattern calls for 3 skeins as this scale pattern uses up a bunch of yarn. In my humble opinion, it’s totally worth it! Can’t wait to wear this all spring & summer long. This bag can be worn as a clutch, or if you’re so inclined add a strap for a cross-body look. The pattern is available as a PDF download for $4 here. We made ours in Blue Lagoon & Violet.
