Hand Bag with Stitched Hexagonal Pattern

Bamboo hand bags are popular accessory for kimono and yukata fashion.

But the basic hexagonal pattern is not. 

Probably it's not fashionable...

So, for hand bags, stitched hexagonal (sashi-mutsume) and decorative hexagonal (hana-mutsume) are used instead.

Stitched hexagonal has a few variations.

This is the simplest one.

Additional sticks are inserted only in one direction, producing checker pattern over hexagons.

Thick bamboo sticks are attached and bound with rattan.

Handles are attached using rattan.
