Purple Clutch

[KnicKnac]

Well, I was just fooling around with this new yarn I purchased, and I came up with this:

 

 

Here it is open:

 

 

I will be posting how I did it and the kind of yarn I used in my blog over the next couple of days.

 

Thanks for looking!

Oh you all are too sweet!

 

The kind of yarn is Cotton Classic by Tahki in color #3947

 

The stitch is from here:

I do believe I started with a chain of 31 - I worked it long ways but folded it over the other way, does that even make sense? I then edged it with a sc all the way around but on one side I added the loop by chaining not on the edge, then went and slipstitched back over it and then sc under it. Wow, it was alot more easier to do then to try to explain.

 

I then just whip stitched the sides and added the button. I toyed with the idea of a handle, but it looks better without one.

 

Thanks so much for looking and the nice words!
