Motley Bag
Description
Classic Checks. Handmade With Attitude♟️✨
Meet The Motley Bag — our playful take on the timeless checkered handbag. Bold, textured and unmistakably handmade, Motley brings together classic patterning with modern crochet craftsmanship to create a statement piece that feels both fun and elevated.
Handcrafted using premium T-shirt yarn, or a beautiful blend with faux-leather yarn, the woven checkered design gives this bag its signature dimensional look. Choose a sophisticated monochrome finish, a striking two-tone combination, or mix things up with multiple colours — Motley was made to be customized.
✨ MAKE IT YOUR MOTLEY
From soft neutrals and rich metallics to bright statement colours, your Motley Bag can be created to suit your personal style.
Choose from:
-
One-colour, two-colour or multicolour designs
-
Premium T-shirt yarn
-
Metallic faux-leather yarn
-
A combination of T-shirt & faux-leather yarn
Each yarn combination creates a slightly different texture and finish, making your Motley feel uniquely yours.
👜 WEAR IT YOUR WAY
Motley comes finished with a gorgeous statement tassel and a long chain strap, allowing you to style her comfortably as a shoulder bag or crossbody.
Want a top handle too? We've got you.
Simply write “ADD HANDLE” in the NOTES section at checkout and we'll add one to your bag at no additional charge.
The handle option gives Motley an entirely different personality — carry her by hand for a structured handbag look, then switch to the chain when you want to go hands-free.
♟️ ALL IN THE DETAILS
The signature oversized checkerboard construction gives Motley a beautifully structured, almost woven appearance. Depending on your yarn selection, she can be understated and sophisticated, playful and colourful, or full-on metallic glamour.
Finished with luxe hardware and that fabulous oversized tassel, Motley isn't your ordinary checkered bag.
She's the bag that makes the outfit.
