This practical and versatile bag can be made as either a cross-body or shoulder bag. The digital sewing pattern by lmazzpatterns includes two sizes — the larger version is ideal for carrying books, documents, or even a small laptop, while the smaller size (scaled to 80%) is perfect for hands-free everyday wear.
Designed for daily use, the larger Subway bag is great for students, commuters, or short trips, while the smaller cross-body Subway bag is perfect for shopping, or any occasion when you want to travel light and have your hands free. One of its best features is the clever 2-in-1 pocket design — a secure zippered pocket combined with a front flap pocket for quick access to your phone, keys, cards, or other essentials.

The SUBWAY Bag design was inspired by young, working women commuting daily through busy city subways — a design that blends style, function, and practicality in one beautiful, modern, everyday accessory.
