The Stitchless Bucket is a modern classic.  Elegant with minimal detailing, it is the perfect carry-all bag.  This bag is constructed entirely by weaving the leather pieces together and fixing a few, strategically-placed rivets for strength.  No sewing machines or hand stitching is involved.  

The pattern is also available in Paper format here

You can choose to buy the straps pre-cut and finished to the correct size and all the metal hardware needed.

      LEATHER

      *You will need approximately 0.5m ² / 4 feet ² of thick yet supple leather for the front, back and bottom sections of the bag (1.6mmto 2mm thickness / 4 to 5 oz is perfect).
      *You will also need thicker, more rigid leather (2mm to 3mm thickness / 6 to 8 oz is perfect) for the straps and cord. The drawstring cord should be 115cm by about 5mm / 45” by 0.2”.
      *Vegetable tanned shoulder leather is perfect for all the straps whilst a more supple shoulder or half hide is perfect for the body of the bag. The thickness and how supple or rigid the leather is will greatly impact the final form of your bag.

      HARDWARE
      *1 x buckle measuring 2cm/0.8” wide</li>
      *2 x o rings measuring 2cm/0.8” diameter</li>
      *0 (plus extra for practicing) x 8mm to 10mm / 0.3” to 0.4”
