Color Pop Clutch Crochet Pattern

I’ve been trying to minimize lately by getting rid of all the things I don’t really need.  Things get cluttered quickly at my house, so I’ve been thinking a lot about what my essentials are.

When I started cleaning out my tote, I realized I was cramming it full of things I don’t need and haven’t used since throwing them to sit at the bottom of my bag for the past six months.

So, I decided to downsize with this super cute Color Pop Clutch bag.  It’s the absolute perfect size for all of my essentials and doesn’t leave any room for me to carry around extra, unneeded items.

The Color Pop Clutch is so chic and trendy, and it’s such a quick crochet you can make it in one sitting.

It’s made with Cascade Avalon in silver with a splash of rich raspberry which gives it a bold, but not overwhelming, pop of color.

Cascade Avalon is perfect for this little clutch because it’s a worsted weight yarn that gives this a beautiful stitch definition while remaining breathable and soft.

It’s a blend of 50% cotton, 50% acrylic so it’s easy to care for and is machine wash and dryer safe.

Plus, that Raspberry color is such a rich, luxurious shade for Fall, I couldn’t resist it.
