My craft is mostly sewing. Both in leather (not as much as Mikkel, but made a pair of shoes) and textile, but once in a while I tend to find small other projects that I find interesting to make aswell.
Anyway, now you kind of know who I am and why I'm here posting. Now we can head on to my first project here on Haandkraft, a pilgrims bag. This kind of bag is good to have around you when you camp. You can use it for plates, eating knifes and for me a sewing kit. It's easy to pack your stuff in it and get going. And when all your stuff is put together it does not lie all over the place where you might loose it.
The bag compartment is roughly around 35cm wide and 25cm. And I find this a fine size. The strap is 160cm, but that should be made to fit individually.
I made a little "S" on the down right side of the lit so that I can better recognise it.
My reference picture is a painting from a danish church called Jetsmark church. And its dated to 1474. I've also seen the bag on european medieval paintings, but I found it more fun to post a picture from my own country.
I'm sorry that the reference is a little small, but that's the size it can get. I find my pictures at the danish church painting collection called Kalkmalerier.dk
