The cotton bag with long belt, which can be carried on the shoulder is known as Shabnam bag. Actually the word shabnam means purl like dewdrop with luster but the name of the bag has nothing to do with this word or its meaning. A bag bears the name, after the movie "Shabnam" in 1949, in which the hero Dilip Kumar and heroin Kamini both used to carry such bags and there after this bag is called as "Shabnam bag". Of course before that movie also the bag was used by generally journalists, freedom fighters etc. (Ref: http://thinkmaharashtra.com/node/1845 ). Slowly Shabnam bag becomes fashion symbol for about 20-25 years. I made this bag in those days.
So let us start crocheting this Shabnam bag.
