• Adjustable webbing crossbody strap with accent detail. The wider webbing strap helps distribute the weight more evenly, making the bag more comfortable to wear as a crossbody, especially for everyday use or travel. It also adds a sturdy, modern look to the finished bag.

• Lining slip pocket

• Card Slots & Slip Pocket Add On – a practical add on for your Lyra Bag that includes 3 card slots and a slip pocket, allowing you to keep your essentials organized and skip carrying a large wallet. Includes the pattern pieces and step by step instructions.

This is an intermediate level pattern as it includes sewing a zipper onto a curved pocket. However, adventurous beginners can skip that feature and sew the front exterior the same way as the back exterior. The front exterior can also be decorated with embroidery details or metal embellishments.

Check the Lyra Bag tester gallery for examples without the front pocket.
