How to crochet a fun clutch that uses the mosaic crochet technique. Don’t let it scare you! It’s comprised of simple single crochet stitches, chains and easy double crochets.

I am not a purse type of gal, and don’t intend on carrying this around in that manner, but rather as a larger clutch that will hold my notebook, and pouch of hooks, pencil and notions.

Make a matching Through the Window Cosmetic Bag or Hook Pouch.

Is it cold in your neck of the woods?

You can make a matching Twisted Through the Window Earwarmer, or Through the Window Scarf.

Materials:

• 230 yards of Worsted Weight Yarn - I used Lily Sugar n Cream in Ecru and Mod Blue
• H8/5mm Crochet Hook
• Tapestry Needle
• Optional, Jewelry Pliers
• Optional, Stitch Marker
• Optional for Lining: Fabric, Zipper, Sewing Machine &/or Needle & Thread (I used a 10.88” wide by 9.25” tall pre-made bag that I stuck inside & then sewed in place)

Material Notes:
Yarn Alternatives: Bernat’s Handicrafter, Paintbox Cotton, Rico Creative Cotton, Red Heart Smoothie, WeCrochet Dishie

I recommend cotton yarn because it’s more durable, and this bag will most likely see a lot of use, and being pulled and pushed around in a larger bag/purse.

Weaving in ends of a tough yarn, like cotton yarn, can be hard on the fingers. Sore thumbs and frustration can be a thing of the past by simply using jewelry pliers to carefully help pull the tapestry needle through the work.

Time Spent:
Just under 3 hours.
