Hooked for Life Melinda Clutch Purse PDF

The Melinda Clutch Purse from Hooked For Life is the perfect fall accessory, and it can be made by any crocheter from beginner to advanced. The majority of the bag uses only slip stitches, single crochet, and chain stitches in its construction; only the flower requires other stitches. This delightful clutch has a structured shape, V-shaped flap, and crab stitch trim. And the lovely flower embellishment neatly covers the magnetic snap closure.
