Magic Carpet Clutch
"The clutch is great if you need a small bag to carry with you while you’re out and about, or to use as a catch-all in a larger bag, like a purse. I use mine inside my project bag for my smaller crochet/knitting accessories while I’m in transit.
This clutch is a great stash buster that’s perfect for any time you need a quick project to work on. If you have some yarn leftover from a finished project, the Magic Carpet Clutch is a quick and cute project to use it on, since it doesn’t take a lot of yarn. You can make it with any weight 4 yarn that you have on hand.
I made mine with Caron Simply Soft and Red Heart Soft. But, my testers used a wide range of weight 4 yarns. Gauge isn’t super important for this pattern. Just know if you use a lighter weight yarn, your clutch will be smaller, a heavier weight, and your clutch will be larger."
