17. Preppy Hexagon Motif Crossbody Bolsa
What This Idea Means
Modern geometry takes center stage in this tailored crossbody bag assembled from 7 joined hexagon motifs. Featuring crisp navy, cream, and mustard yellow color blocking, it offers a tailored preppy accent.
How to Make It
- Crochet 7 Hexagons: Work 7 solid hexagon motifs in alternating navy blue, cream, and mustard yarn rounds.
- Block Hexagons: Steam-block all motifs flat to sharp geometric precision.
- Assemble Geometry: Join 7 hexagons (3 front, 3 back, 1 bottom gusset) using an invisible flat mattress stitch.
- Add Top Zip: Sew a navy blue zipper along the top opening edge.
- Attach Strap: Fasten an adjustable canvas guitar-style crossbody strap to side D-rings using swivel snap hooks.
Tips & Variations
- Tip: Use a solid stitch hexagon pattern rather than open granny hexagons to maintain structural opacity.
- Variation: Use pastel shades (pink, mint, butter yellow) for a softer spring-aesthetic hexagon purse.
