This little project has been slowly growing on my hook for a while… now it’s finished and I’m so pleased with the end result – my ‘Sea Shells Clutch Bag’! 🙂
Here are the links to my Ravelry and Etsy stores where you can purchase the pattern for a small price. It’s a simple design but I’ve included a lot of step by step photos with the pattern too.
And yes, that’s a little piece of sea glass that I’ve used as a fastener!! 🙂
I’m so excited about finally having been able to use a piece of sea glass as a bead with my crochet!
I absolutely loved using the yarn from Miss Moffat Yarns
They were a joy to work with and the colours inspired by the seaside are just perfect!
And to keep with the coastal colours and the coastal shell stitches, I used a coastal themed lining too…
I’ve had this fabric for many years and it was great to finally use it – I only needed a small bit for the lining of this clutch bag so there’s plenty left for other projects in the future.
We enjoyed a lovely sunny day on Sunday and I used the opportunity to take some photos with a coastal backdrop…
Hope you like it…
…and Happy Crocheting Everyone! 🙂 🙂
This is adorable!
Thank you so much! Glad you like it…😊❤️

Very nice, right down to the details with the sea glass and the fabric liner!
Thank you so much! Glad you like it Tony…😊❤️
This is just gorgeous… I’m going to have to make one, and I’ve found these lovely coloured mini skeins based on the votes for women colours that I think will look lovely with your design. https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/585160904/votes-for-women-speckled-gradient-mini?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=sock%20mini%20skein&ref=sr_gallery-1-12
I love your use of the sea glass… That’s just gorgeous 😊
Hi Julia… thank you so much! Glad you like it… the yarn is lovely in those special colours! 😊❤️
I’m so excited about them arriving! They look beautiful in the photo.
The fabric lining makes this special! Good choice!
Thank you so much! I was glad I had it… 😊💙
Yes I do like it very much indeed, from the lining to the sea glass bead too the colours to the stitch.
This I think you could sell as a kit! Just saying….
Oooh yeah, great kit idea 😊
It is isn’t it Julia! Not enough hours in the day to do all the things I’d like! 😆😆
I know that feeling!!
Awww, thanks Cathy! Hmmm… a kit would be good! You may have planted a very little seed there! 😊💚💙💚
The sea glass and the lining are just perfect.
Thank you Yolanda! I was so pleased with the finishing touches…😊❤️❤️
Aw it’s perfect! How clever to use sea glass as a fastener as well, it really finishes it off 🙂
Awww, thanks Hannah! I was so happy with the seaglass fastener! 😊💚💚💚
