The Yarn That’s Perfect for This Clutch

I was just finishing up a yet to be released pattern with this fun Bernat Home Dec Yarn and decided to design a clutch, which is something I have been wanting to do for a while!

Maker Home Dec

This yarn is made by Bernat, and is a Weight 5 – Bulky yarn.

Maker Home Dec

Fiber: Cotton (72%), Nylon (28%)
Yardage: 250g / 8.8 oz, 317 yards / 290 m
Hook: 8 mm (L-11)
Substitute: Knit Picks Billow

This yarn was a pleasure to work within this pattern! The clutch crochets up so sturdy, but at the same time is exceptionally soft because of this yarn. If you can’t find this yarn, any T-shirt like yarn should work, or you can even try to make your own!

Since my daughter has already claimed this one like hers, I suppose I am going to make another crocheted clutch for me! The Home Dec yarn comes with 126 yards, so you can easily make two of these with one skein!

Finishing

Fasten off the last row.  Weave in ends on clutch with a yarn needle. The next step is to turn the clutch inside out. Now you can see the beautiful little puffs you created with the SPHDCST! 🙂

How to attach button crochet

Attaching The Button

Place the button about 1 inch from the bottom of the beach glass clutch, as shown in the picture above, for correct placement.

  • Cut a 6-inch piece of leftover yarn and weave through the button starting from the back of the button.
  • Next, attach the button to the back by pulling through the yarn on both ends.
  • Secure tightly.
