I just really love a good bag, (you know what I mean??) and this crochet bobble clutch does not disappoint! It fits all the things, uses one of my favorite yarns and is just plain adorable. I’ve honestly had this pattern sitting here for like, 2 years. I’m embarrassed that I haven’t shared it before now! I love this little clutch so much!
