This little gem is darling to look at yet easy enough for a beginning crocheter to make. The clutch is perfect for use as a make-up bag, storing those smaller items that roam around the interior of your purse like keys, chapstick, and gum. It’s also large enough to carry as a clutch if you want to travel light.
You can get two clutches from one roll of cord and they are great sellers at craft shows.
Once crocheting is complete, finishing your purses requires some sewing to add a lining and a zipper closure. You can use a machine or hand sew. If sewing isn’t in your skill set, recruit a friend or family member with seamstress skills to help. It only takes a half hour to create the lining and set the zipper. I have filmed a step-by-step instructional video to walk you through the process.
