BAABAG
BAA BAG is a hand felted crossbody bag made from 100% Shetland wool from sheep raised in Scotland (Fife) with cotton webbing for the strapping. The idea for this project was to create a product made from regenerative materials and avoid the use of plastic. Predominately made using local materials from Scotland such as wool, which is a declining industry in Scotland, as wool which has become increasingly unprofitable, is important to create products to keep traditions alive.
The bag also features an adjustable strap and a magnetic pop button on the inside.
Designed by Luke Turner.
