Clutch Purse

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

This pattern is also at the LYS.  I designed it for some new Noro yarn that was just coming out at the time.  I made sure that it only used one skein of the yarn because it was a little expensive, but you could use any worsted weight that you wanted.  I also added a frog on the front to dress it up a bit instead of a button.

I designed this pattern for our LYS.  It is simple, and goes quick.  You can contact Joyce at www.yarnshoponline.com if you would like the pattern.

This works perfect for small coffee cups and water bottles.  I have also used it for storing my sun glasses in.

5 size 3 double point needles (or your choice for knitting in the round)

Instructions:

Knit in the round using pattern k3, p1

When you have reached the desired length start your decreases as follows

Needle 1; k1, ssk, k to last 3 sts, k2 tog, k1

repeat for other needles

Alternate a decrease round and a plain knit round till you have 24 sts left

k to tog all the way around
