Skekler Bag

Field & river rush, coir, box wood toggle. Dimensions: Height 70cm (excluding rope strap) x Width 34cm x Depth 18cm.

Skekler bag created at a 3 day workshop taught by Rachel of the Crafty Beggars at Tear Up Festival, August 2024.

Sarah was one of nine lucky students to be immersed in making this highly sculptural bag that was designed by Rachel. An ambitious project, full of techniques such as a plaited lid, cordage, stitching and much more. Sarah decided that the flowering tips of the field rushes were too beautiful to cut off and so her bag gained a bushy fox’s tail to swish along with!
