Materials:

  • 861-100 Vanna's Glamour Yarn: Diamond     
  • Lion Brand Crochet Hook - Size G-6 (4 mm)               
  • Lion Brand Large-Eye Blunt Needles      
  • 8 x 14 in. (20.5 x 35.5 cm) Piece of White Satin for Lining
  • One Set of Sew-On Snap Fasteners
  • Small Sew-On Silver Charms
  • Sewing Needle and White Sewing Thread
  • Narrow Silver Ribbon, About 12 in. (30.5 cm) Long

 

Notes:

  1. Clutch is worked back and forth in rows to make flat rectangle.
  2. A fabric lining is sewed in, then piece is folded and seamed to make the Clutch.
  3. Size: About 6 1/2 x 8 in. (15 x 20.5 cm), after seaming

     

Instructions:

Gauge:

3 1/2 reps (5-dc groups) + 10 rows = about 4 in. (10 cm) in pattern.
When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. The needle or hook size called for in the pattern is based on what the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from person to person. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

What a lovely clutch! This looks like something you could purchase at a high-end bridal boutique. People will be so impressed when you tell them it's handmade!

I have an online shop where I sell crochet purses. I have made over one hundred but never saw one as sweet as this. I read thru the instructions and it's so easy. I can make up one in an evening. Thank you for sharing this great project , it's a real winner.

This bridal clutch is very sophisticated and elegant! In addition to making the traditional white tones, I could see having these for each bridesmaid in the color of their gowns as well! Glam it up even further by adding some irredescent sequins here and there on the body of the clutch in addition to the clasp area. Another option would be to sew on a ready made beaded strap from yardage found in the fabric store as there are many trims to choose from. A lovely purse, thanks for sharing!

Love your crochet scarf and the champagne glasses are so cute.
