Nami Clutch

Discover the charm of handmade accessories with this delightful clutch pattern! This stylish clutch is expertly knit in the round, then transitions to flat knitting for the flap, ensuring a seamless and professional finish. You'll complete the project with an elegant I-cord bind off, adding a polished edge. Don’t forget to create buttonholes for added functionality! After finishing the flap, you'll pick up from the Provisional cast on at the bottom of the clutch to knit in the round once more, concluding with a three-needle bind off for a clean and secure finish. For an added touch of craftsmanship, you may choose to insert a fabric liner and zipper to enhance its utility.

Perfectly sized for everyday use, the finished measurements of this clutch are approximately 7” (18 cm) tall and 9” (23 cm) wide, making it a stylish yet practical accessory. Whether you’re heading out for a night on the town or need a chic bag for a day trip, this clutch is ideal.

For this project, we recommend using the luxurious KnitPicks Gloss DK yarn, which blends 70% Merino Wool with 30% Silk for a soft and sophisticated feel. You will need one skein each of the following colors: Sterling 27013 (main color) and Aegean 25587 (contrasting color). Each skein offers 123 yards (50 grams), providing ample material for this clutch.

Optional materials include a 9” (23 cm) long zipper for securing your items, a small fabric rectangle measuring 6.5” x 3” (16.5 cm x 8 cm) for the interior, and a rectangular piece measuring 19” x 8” (49 cm x 20.5 cm) to line the clutch. To give your clutch extra sturdiness, consider adding quilting batting.
