The sophisticated, grown-up cousin of the market bag, this sleek and chic accessory backs up classic refinement with practical construction. Straps and lining provide function and fashion in equal parts, while Linen stitch gives not only a firm fabric and defined silhouette, but also a blended two-tone effect for subtle flair. You’ll never be out of sorts or out of place with this sensible and stylish bag.

The Talia Café Bag starts from a provisionally cast on flat knit base, with stitches picked up along the sides for knitting in the round to work the linen stitch sides. Instructions are included for a lining and attached shoulder strap.
