The Design

"Make one in every color!"

Originally designed for the 2019 LYS tour as a little hands-free ‘passport pouch’ (perfectly scaled for phone, cash, and lipstick), we found ourselves wanting one in every color. And then some. So we added color-blocking, played with the scale, and morphed it into a flat, foldable clutch. In simple single crochet, it’s the perfect project for quick gifting!

We made the Crocheted Crossbody Bags & Clutch in two sturdy plant fiber yarns—Wool and the Gang’s Ra-Ra Raffia and Rowan Creative Linen

This four-page pattern includes:

  • Color photography by Laura Gehring
  • Special Technique:
    • Changing color in rounds
  • Instructions for finishing your bags
